Hi,
Can someone tell me how to draw a histogram for the following summary?
Richard Minnie Albert Helen Joe Kingston
12 33 56 67 15 66
The summary tell that Richard has occurrence 12, Minnie has occurrence 33,
and so on. I would like to view this summary in a histogram.
I want the X-axis be the person name (Richard, Minnie, ....), Y-axis be the
frequency (12, 33....).
How can I make the histogram has 6 bars, each bar was named as Richard,
Minnie, ... , Kingston?
Thanks,
Phoebe

Hi Phoebe,
Try
x <- c(12, 33, 56, 67, 15, 66)
names(x) <-
c('Richard','Minnie','Albert','Helen','Joe','Kingston')
barplot(x, las = 1, space = 0)
HTH,
Jorge
