R help - Jan 2013 - Percentages in bar plot

Dear R-users,
Though it's a silly thing to ask, but I'm not getting a way out. I wish
to
find the percentage distribution for a data vector 'stop'. The coomand
below is giving the frequency distribution.  May I know the option to see
the percentages instead of frequencies.  Similarly, what option I should
put in a histogram plot to see the percentages instead of frequencies?

---------------------------------------------------------------------
stop<-c(8,6,6,6,8,6,6,8,8,6,6,6,8,8,8)
barplot(table(stop))

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Many thanks for your time.


Regards,
Jamil.

Hello,

Try

barplot(table(stop)/sum(table(stop)))


Hope this helps,

Rui Barradas
