Research direction

Start at the Data Visualization exercises block linked in the issue and inspect the two multiline ggplot examples. Verify the syntax in Python, update the examples to use the shown valid formatting, and confirm the exercises no longer produce syntax errors.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

In this block of exercises: https://aeturrell.github.io/python4DS/data-visualise.html#exercises-2

The multiline formatting of this block:

ggplot(penguins, aes(x = "island", fill = "species")) +
  geom_bar(position = "fill")
ggplot(penguins, aes(x = "species", fill = "island")) +
  geom_bar(position = "fill")

results in syntax errors.

Recommend replacement with:

ggplot(penguins, aes(x = "island", fill = "species")) + geom_bar(position = "fill")

or for consistency with above blocks:

(
    ggplot(penguins, aes(x = "species", fill = "island"))
    + geom_bar(position = "fill")
)
