R help - Jan 2008 - Box Plot With Groups being numbers

I would like to Summarize values that are repeated measures at a
certain river mile with box plot i.e.

The data matrix looks like this
123  124  125                  #fiver mile
0.5   0.6   0.7
0.4   0.5   0.6
...    ...     ...                    #values

I would like to make a boxplot with the river mile naming the
different box plot.  How do you suppress the X123?

Try:

plot(as.factor(rivermile), measurements)

Given your "data" is in a data.frame:

boxplot(data, names = gsub("^X", "", names(data)))
