Plot a data frame as a table

Question

I am moving away from Word/Excel tables and trying to generate a table in R. I have a data frame that I\'d like to simply print as a plot, while being able

Answer 1

Since I am going for the bonus points:

   #Plot your table with table Grob in the library(gridExtra)
   ss <- tableGrob(x)

   #Make a scatterplot of your data
   k <- ggplot(x,aes(x=x$"Value 1",y=x$"Value 2")) + 
   geom_point()

   #Arrange them as you want with grid.arrange
   grid.arrange(k,ss)

You can change the number of rows, columns, height and so on if you need to.

Good luck with it

Answer 2

Try this. Yes use pdf() to plot a PDF file (e.g. mydf.pdf) or png() to plot a png file:

library(gridExtra)
pdf("mypdf.pdf", height=6, width=4)
grid.table(x)
dev.off()
