<b>scatterplot3d</b>- An<i>R</i>Package for Visualizing Multivariate Data

TLDR

Scatterplot3d is an R package that visualizes multivariate data in three dimensions. The paper discusses the features of the Scatterplot3d package. The package is built solely on existing R functions and graphics, demonstrating R's extensibility. The paper provides examples using both simulated and real‑world data.

Abstract

Scatterplot3d is an R package for the visualization of multivariate data in a three dimensional space. R is a "language for data analysis and graphics". In this paper we discuss the features of the package. It is designed by exclusively making use of already existing functions of R and its graphics system and thus shows the extensibility of the R graphics system. Additionally some examples on generated and real world data are provided.
