I am using R 2.2.1 on a Windows 2000 PC. When I do a grid() after the boxplot it overprints the boxplot: > boxplot(count ~ spray, data = InsectSprays, col = "lightgray") > grid(nx=NA, ny=NULL) > if I try the panel.first > boxplot(count ~ spray, data = InsectSprays, col = "lightgray", + panel.first=grid(nx=NA, ny=NULL)) > I can see the grid flash

bonjour, i'm a mathematic teacher and i have a question for R-developers : is it possible to have (in the future) a boxplot with whiskers from the first decile to the ninth decile, as usual in secondary french schools... by example : boxplot(serie,range=-1) for french boxplot ? cordialement, jean-pierre lyc?e jean zay orl?ans, france http://mathazay.free.fr/spip/

Hii, Is it possible, to use the plot() funktion and the boxplot() funktion together ? I will plot a simple graph and additionally to the graph on certain places boxplots. I have imagined to plot the graph a little bit transparency and show in the same graph on certain places boxplots.... Is it possible to do it in this way ? greetings, johnh -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Plot-and-Boxplot-in-the-same-graph-tp22632355p22632355.html Sent fr...

...is might be considered as one according to the FAQ --- and this is not a major problem. Don't hesitate to tell me if I'm wrong. If you try to do a boxplot on a matrix and set the "at" argument to some vector different from 1:n, n is the number of columns of your matrix, then some boxplots will be hidden since the default "xlim" value will be set to c(0.5, n + 0.5) during the call of the bxp function. Currently you can easily bypass this problem by setting "xlim" appropriately when calling the boxplot function. I think it will be better if all boxplots were alwa...

Hi everyone, I think I have found a minor issue with the R function "boxplot.stats". But before I make such a rash comment, I'd like to check my facts by fixing what I think is the problem. However, why I try to do this, R does not behave as I expect. Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong? If I use the command: debug(boxplot.stats) I am allowed to step through the code as

I have data I'd like to plot using the formula interface to boxplot. I call boxplot like so: with(mydata, boxplot(count ~ geno * tissue)) I get a boxplot with x axis labels like "wt.kidney". I would like to change the '.' to a newline. Where is this separator configured? Thanks, -Ed

Hello to all users and wizards. I am regulary using 'boxplot' function or its analogue - 'bwplot' from the 'lattice' library. But they are, as far as I understand, totally flawed in functionality: they miss ability to select what they would draw 'in the middle' - median, mean. What the box means - standard error, 90% or something else. What the whiskers mean -

Hello, I have created two boxplots with following R code. There is one outlier in B group. The outlier is 33. But the all other data are between 0 to 4. How can I skip y-axis around 5 to 25, and expand 0-4 for this case. Also I want keep the outlier in my boxplot. I want my boxplot look like the second one, keep the outlier, and ma...

I have read and reread the boxplot and the boxplot stats page, and I still cannot understand how and what boxplot shows. I realize that this might be due to me not knowing enough statistics, but anyway... First, how does boxplot determine the size of the box? And is the line inside the box the mean or the median (or something completely different?) And how does it determine how long out the

Hi: I have a question making side by side boxplot. My response is numeric and I want to make a side by side boxplot of it accroding to a factor vector. So, there are several boxplots on the same plot. Each boxplot is with respect to one level for a factor. The levels of the factor are some characters. When I make the plot, the boxplots are arranged according to the alphabetic order of the levels. My question is that how I can change the order the boxplots are arranged. For exam...

At least, xlim= and ylim= are the wrong way round, log="x" (or "y") and xaxt= work as expected, I haven't looked at anything else. Some code to see if you can reproduce the bug (or discover

Hello, I am trying to plot two sets of boxplots together. These are estimates of two experiments and?seven?factors. The results of the two experiments I want to plot as boxplots stacked to each other. Therefore I plot first the results of the first experiment; and next with the add option the second set of boxplots. The boxplots are plotted a...

...ll not be flamed for this on the list, but I am starting out with R and having some trouble with combining plots. I am playing with the famous iris dataset (checking out example dataset in R while reading through Introduction to datamining) What I would like to do is create three graphs (combined boxplots) besides each other for each of the three species (Setosa, Versicolour and Virginica) with each graph showing showing four boxplots Sepal.Length, Sepal.Width, Petal.Length and Petal.Width. I can create the boxplot for the total dataset by doing the following: data(iris); boxplot(iris[1:4]); Howe...

Hi R users, I have a question. How can I see the code behind the function. For example, > boxplot function (x, ...) UseMethod("boxplot") <environment: namespace:graphics> I really would like to see how people code this. Could someone please show me how to see the code behind the function?

hi I have list of matrix of lenggth 61 containg the mean values..I want to make a boxplot for each of the matrix. I used a for loop but i cant figure out the way to save in the boxplots > all.the.mean [[1]] mean 0.5 o.6 0.8 [[2]] 0.6 0.6 0.9 now i want the boxplot for each of the matrix in a seperate window.my code for(i in 1:length(all.the.mean) { windows() boxplot(all.the.mean[[i]] } this prints in all the boxplots but it cant be saved i dont know to save those plz help m...

Hello all, I wrote a small function to add labels for outliers in a boxplot. This function will only work on a simple boxplot/formula command (e.g: something like boxplot(y~x)). Code + example follows in this e-mail. I'd be happy for any suggestions on how to improve this code, for example: - Handle boxplot.matrix (which shouldn't be too hard to do) - Handle cases of complex

Hi! I am trying to get the tick / label under a stacked boxplot with only a single data row. With >=2 rows it works, but with a single one the tick resp. my class name is not printed below the boxplot. Can anybody point me to what am I doing wrong? For example: boxplot(data.frame(c(3,4,5)),names=list("a"),beside=F) Here, I would like to have the "a" below the single

...ric), and wish to produce 4 boxplot series (with 48 plots in each) , one for each column of each object. Basically I want a boxplot from boxplot(mylist[[]][,i]) for i in 1:4. It seems that I can create a boxplot of length 48 from the entire list, but I don't seem able to subscript to return 4 boxplots from the list - I have also tried to create 4 new lists (one for each column of each object) by using variations on the following, but none seems to work: newlist<-oldlist[,1] newlist<-oldlist[[]][,1] newlist<-oldlist[[]][,$colone] can anyone please offer some insight??
