Hi,

Your question doesn't quite make sense to me, and since you didn't
provide a reproducible example it's impossible to really know what
you're doing.

Have you read ?barplot and tried the examples? There's a names.arg
argument that takes a character vector that is used for labels.
Otherwise the column names, if any, are used. Either of those should
work for you.

includes a separate bar for each sample taken. I am having trouble applying
these sample labels to the individual bars. It seems that the barplot() function
will only take a numeric matrix, and therefore cannot have any character vectors
included. Thus, I can make a bar plot that labels the bars 1,2,3,etc., but not
with the actual sample names. Any help would be appreciated.
