Dear R community, [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
Dear R community, I am working on a dataset that has median 0 (due to many "0" entries) for my principal variable of interest (40 entries in total). I would like to plot a graph of this variable to show it visually, but have a hard time: boxplots are not informative (because median 0). Conventional scatterplots are neither. Is there a good way to do this (e.g. plotting the "0" values with a jitter or something else...)? Thanking you all and best regards, Georg. ************************* Georg Ehret Johns Hopkins Baltimore [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
