Visualizing daily data trends.

I had to revisit some R code that I had written a while back. Since I had additional data, I decided to rework it a little bit. The code generates 2 plots. The first one is just a line plot of a daily count of something ( e.g. number of files generated). The second one shows the trend.

I ran it on 2 1/2 years of data, and came up with the following plots.





The scatter plot just shows the daily values. The lower values are on the weekends. The trend graph shows a clearer pattern. It shows a sharp dip during the year end (vacation time).
