plot a 3d via plotly in r

To plot a 3D scatterplot using plotly in R, you can start by installing and loading the plotly package:

main.r
install.packages("plotly")
library(plotly)
43 chars
3 lines

Next, you can create a data frame with the X, Y, and Z coordinates of your data:

main.r
data <- data.frame(
  x = c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5),
  y = c(2, 3, 4, 5, 6),
  z = c(3, 4, 5, 6, 7)
)
93 chars
6 lines

Then, you can create a scatter3d plot using the plot_ly() function and passing in the data frame and specifying the X, Y, and Z columns:

main.r
plot_ly(data, x = ~x, y = ~y, z = ~z, type = "scatter3d", mode = "markers")
76 chars
2 lines

This will create a basic 3D scatterplot, which you can further customize using various plotly functions and arguments.
