| Aesthetic | Mapped variable type | ggplot2 function |
|---|---|---|
| Color | Discrete/categorical | scale_color_viridis_d(option = 'name of viridis palette') |
| Color | Continuous | scale_color_distiller_c(option = 'name of viridis palette') |
| Fill | Discrete/categorical | scale_fill_viridis_d(option = 'name of viridis palette') |
| Fill | Continuous | scale_fill_viridis_c(option = 'name of viridis palette') |
