code runs (no error) but ggplots not showing in RStudio plot window

[zara]

Hi,

I'm new to do this so this could be a basic question, apologies in advance.

I'm trying to map census data and I'm using ggplots. Each line of code of runs with no error BUT still a map doesn't appear in the plot window. Your help will be much appreciated, thank you.

While it may be difficult with a shape file, if you can provide a reproducible example it will be much easier for folks to help you troubleshoot. See some ideas for how to do this here:

FAQ: How to do a minimal reproducible example ( reprex ) for beginners

A minimal reproducible example consists of the following items: A minimal dataset, necessary to reproduce the issue The minimal runnable code necessary to reproduce the issue, which can be run on the given dataset, and including the necessary information on the used packages. Let's quickly go over each one of these with examples: Minimal Dataset (Sample Data) You need to provide a data frame that is small enough to be (reasonably) pasted on a post, but big enough to reproduce your issue. Let's say, as an example, that you are working with the iris data frame head(iris) #> Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species #> 1 5.1 3.5 1.4 0.…
