R help - Jul 2007 - Subplot.

Hello All,

I wanted to do many plots (in my case, wanted to get 6 histograms) on the
same figure. Is there a  method in R that analogous to 'subplot' in
MATLAB?
Any help will be very much appreciated.

thanks,
Suman

Here are a few possibilities:


data(singer, package = "lattice")

## using traditional graphics

singer.split <- with(singer, split(height, voice.part))
par(mfrow = c(2, 4))
for (i in names(singer.split))
    hist(singer.split[[i]], main = i, xlab = "height")

## using lattice

library(lattice)
histogram(~height | voice.part, singer)

## using ggplot2

library(ggplot2)
qplot(height, data = singer, geom = "histogram", facets = voice.part ~
.)
