Dear R users,
I am trying to draw error bars in a bar plot, I use this code (tried many others
which did not work):
install.packages()
library(gplots)
y <-c(39.02, 46.42)
se <- c(7.57,7.35)
plot <- barplot(y, beside=TRUE, col=0, ylim=c(0,47), axis.lty=1,
main="far-red", xlab="latitude",
names.arg=c("56N", "68N"))
superpose.eb(plot, y, se, col="orange", lwd=2)
Then I get an error saying that it cannot find the superpose.eb function.
Why? Isn?t under gplots?
Thanks
Rosario
I don't have any idea where you came up with superpose.ep - rseek.org doesn't return any results for a function of that name. If you check the package information for gplots you'll see that plotCI() is available to plot error bars. There's also the errbar() function from hmisc, and probably several others.

Hi Rosario, It saying that because you could have not loaded that function in your R session. It availbale at [1]. Go there, copy and paste it in your session. You should be ready to go after doing this.

It looks like superpose.eb is someone's function and not in a package. https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2002-November/027299.html --- On Thu, 6/3/10, Rosario Garcia Gil <M.Rosario.Garcia at genfys.slu.se> wrote:> From: Rosario Garcia Gil <M.Rosario.Garcia at genfys.slu.se> > Subject: [R] (no subject) > To: "r-help at r-project.org" <r-help at r-project.org> > Received: Thursday, June 3, 2010, 11:33 AM > Dear R users, > > I am trying to draw error bars in a bar plot, I use this > code (tried many others which did not work): > > install.packages() > library(gplots) > y <-c(39.02, 46.42) > se <- c(7.57,7.35) > plot <- barplot(y, beside=TRUE, col=0, ylim=c(0,47), > axis.lty=1, main="far-red", xlab="latitude", > names.arg=c("56N", "68N")) > superpose.eb(plot, y, se, col="orange", lwd=2) > > Then I get an error saying that it cannot find the > superpose.eb function. > > Why?
