Dear R users: I have a continuous outcome variable and four predictors, two continuous and two dichotomous. i would like to use the lattice plot to create scatter plots for the continuous predictors and boxplots for the dichotomous predictors. with 4 continuous variables, this is what i have been doing: trial = rbind ( cbind ( cimt$ant.mean, cimt$age, 1 ), cbind ( cimt$ant.mean, cimt$sbp, 2 ), cbind ( cimt$ant.mean, cimt$ldl, 3 ), cbind ( cimt$ant.mean, cimt$hdl, 4 )) trial = as.data.frame(trial) names(trial) = c("cimt","x","group") trial$group.f factor(trial$group,label=c("Age(years)","SBP(mmHg)","LDL(mg/dL)","HDL(mg/dL)")) x11(height=6,width=14) xyplot (cimt~x|group.f, data=trial, scale=list(x=list(relation="free")),as.table=T,col="dark grey", strip=strip.custom(which.given=1, bg="transparent"),ylab="Mean CIMT (mm)",layout=c(4,1),aspect=1:1,xlab="",pch=16) Any recommendations how to use the lattice package in include 2 dichotomous variables with two continuous variables? thank you, William -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/how-to-compare-different-types-of-graphics-in-R-tp4632906.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
