# Using centered_barplot() to Visualize Nominal Distributions

    library(nomiShape)

## Centered Bar Plot Example

The below example demonstrates how to use the `centered_barplot()` function from the `nomiShape` package to create a centered bar plot for a nominal variable “manufacturer” in the `mpg` dataset. Centered bar plots help visualize the distribution of categories by placing the most frequent categories at the center.

    centered_barplot(mpg, "manufacturer")

Another example using the `starwars` dataset to visualize the distribution of the “species” variable, scaled to percentages.

    centered_barplot(starwars, "species", scale = "percent")
