Package Spotlight: anim.plots

The package anim.plots behaves like a sort of user-friendly shell on top of animate that makes animations of some of the most common types of plots in base R in a more intuitive fashion that animate.



This package depends on two other important packages:

-   animation, which is an R library that can be used to create animations from any collection of plots.
