Hello, I have created two boxplots with following R code. There is one outlier in B group. The outlier is 33. But the all other data are between 0 to 4. How can I skip y-axis around 5 to 25, and expand 0-4 for this case. Also I want keep the outlier in my boxplot. I want my boxplot look like the second one, keep the outlier, and make an interrupt of y-axis from 5 to 25. Thanks, Jianghong

Is there any way to get a boxplot of several data sets beside one another on the same graph, as there is for barplot? If I do: d1 <- data.frame(a = c(rep(1:3, each = 3)), b = c(1:9)) d2 <- data.frame(a = c(rep(1:3, each = 3)), b = c(9:1)) boxplot(d1$b ~ d1$a) boxplot(d2$b ~ d2$a, add=T) It will show the two datasets on the one graph, but the middle point will overlap. What I want is

Dear all, To draw a lowess line on a plot was a piece of cake; to draw a loess line, however, seems not that easy. Is the loess plotting implemented at all in relation to the loess function, or do I have to look in add-on packages? Thanks, Marcin

Hello, I'm currently using a boxplot to visualize data for three different models. As I have three models, I'm plotting three parallel boxplots for each factor. This works fine - what I need now is a line connecting the medians of each boxplot of each model. I want to do this in order to visualize the trend that one of the models exhibit. Basically, I want to plot a curve for each model

Hi, Consider this simple plot: > plot(1:25,runif(25,0,1),ylab="First Y-axis label",xaxt="n") I want to add an additional axis as > axis(4,at=seq(0.2,1,.2), labels=1:5) I have no idea how to add now the title of the new axis as "Second Y-axis label". I want this text to be vertically directed from bottom to top. I can't find the function in text() to write

Good Morning, I am trying to get side by side boxplots of two groups on the same variable. The last item under ?boxplot led me to some useful code. I use "boxwex" to make the boxes narrower, "at" to shift them over and "add" to draw them both on the same graph. Something along the lines of: attach(group1) boxplot(Y~X, col="blue", boxwex=.4,

Dear list, How can I add the mean and standard deviation to each of the boxplots using the example provided in the boxplot function? boxplot(len ~ dose, data = ToothGrowth, boxwex = 0.25, at = 1:3 - 0.2, subset = supp == "VC", col = "yellow", main = "Guinea Pigs' Tooth Growth", xlab = "Vitamin C dose mg",

Hello, I am trying to plot two sets of boxplots together. These are estimates of two experiments and?seven?factors. The results of the two experiments I want to plot as boxplots stacked to each other. Therefore I plot first the results of the first experiment; and next with the add option the second set of boxplots. The boxplots are plotted at 'at = 1:7 - 0.15 for the first experiment and

I'm graphing a series of boxplots of grouped data inside a function that passes the data.frame, the names vector, and a title vector. Because both the data subset changes with each successive pass through the function, occasionally the names vector turns up with only one group to plot. This is an expected result. However, when the names argument in boxplot has only a single name, it

Dear all - With the following code I get Boxplots and Stripcharts in one Plot: with(InsectSprays, boxplot(count ~ spray, boxwex = 0.3)) with(InsectSprays, stripchart(count ~ spray, col = "red", vertical = TRUE, add = TRUE)) But the dots from the stripchart are plotted over the Boxes. Is there any possibility to have Stripchart and Boxplots side-by-side, i.e. to move boxplots and/or

Dear all, I am a total beginner in R, so sorry if this is the wrong place. I am using R 2.10.1 on a Mac (Mac OS 10.6.2). I have this small dataset : growth sugar 75 C 72 C 73 C 61 F 67 F 64 F 62 S 63 S I have no problem reading the table, or getting the summary, but if I try boxplot(growth~sugar, ylab="growth", xlab="sugar", data=Dataset), I have the following error :

Hi I have two vectors of integers and I am plotting a box plot that contains both vectors. I have done the following: vec1 < -scan("file1") vec2 < -scan("file2") boxplot(vec1, vec2, range=0, horizontal=TRUE, names=c("One","Two"), boxwex=0.15) I managed to get both boxplots on the same figure but there they are wide apart. Is there a way to reduce

Hi, set.seed(45) test1<-data.frame(columnA=rnorm(7,45),columnB=rnorm(7,10)) #used an example probably similar to your actual data apply(test1,2,function(x) sprintf("%.1f",median(x))) #columnA columnB # "44.5"? "10.2" par(mfrow=c(1,2)) lapply(test1,function(x) {b<-

Was there ever a convenient method provided to add boxplots to the current plot at specified x values? There was a question by Martin Maechler some time ago here, but I could seem to find any satisfactory resolution of it. I see that there is an add=T option to boxplot and bxp, but I don't see how to set the x-values. url: http://www.econ.uiuc.edu Roger Koenker email roger at

Thank you for your guys reply for my previous question. But I got one more question about the boxplot. With the code in the R-help: boxplot(len ~ dose, data = ToothGrowth, boxwex = 0.25, at = 1:3 - 0.2, subset = supp == "VC", col = "yellow", main = "Guinea Pigs' Tooth Growth", xlab = "Vitamin C dose mg", ylab =

Greetings, I am trying to add a boxplot to the bottom of a histogram, right between the histogram bars and the x axis. Here is the code I am using at the moment (the par line is probably not relevant for our discussion): hs <- hist(x, breaks = 20, plot = F) par(mar = c(3,3,2,1)) hist(x, breaks = 20, main = NULL, ylim = c(-2, max(hs$counts))) boxplot(x, horizontal = T, axes = T, add =

There seems to be a problem with partial matching of argument names in boxplot(), in respect of the "horizontal" argument. I don't recall seeing this issue discussed previously. My apologies if I am being redundant. (A scan of CRAN revealed that someone had experienced problems with the "horizontal" argument, but he was spelling it out in full, so that was a different

Hi all, I would like to ask a question with regard to R graphics. I am currently trying to add data points in boxplots using points(). In my script, I add up boxplots three times using add=TRUE. I use points() every time I add boxplots, and I see data points. However, I see all data points are clustered at three specific points on x-axis; the locations of the data points are not overlapping with

Hello, I am new to R and currently have the following problem: I have successfully loaded my data in R which consists of two numeric columns (LI_F and female) and one character column (Strain). So far I can plot two different set of boxplots for each of the numeric columns plotted by the groups of the character column and the commands look like that: boxplot(LI_F~Strain, ylab="LI_F",

I have a data set with four columns and need to make boxplots from them. Data is as follows: tank Tanks Total cons_hat 1 a a4 5.651017 5.59 2 a a5 5.017499 5.29 3 a a6 4.894238 4.69 4 c c4 3.986347 3.40 5 c c5 4.099442 3.58 6 c c6 4.150522 3.64 7 h h4 5.187792 6.32 8 h h5 6.713422 6.44 9 h h6 5.168555
