similar to: Histogram and Density on the the same graph

Hi there, I hope this question is not as stupid as the one before ... I tried to shorten my histogram (because the distribution is quite skewed and I simply don't want to see the long tail but still use the histogram plot). How can I do something like this? (The example does not work but I don't know why...) data <- rnorm(100) # as example, of course this is not skewed... h <-

Currently, I am doing it this way. x <- mtcars$mpg h<-hist(x, breaks=10, col="red", xlab="Miles Per Gallon", main="Histogram with Normal Curve") xfit<-seq(min(x),max(x),length=40) yfit<-dnorm(xfit,mean=mean(x),sd=sd(x)) yfit <- yfit*diff(h$mids[1:2])*length(x) lines(xfit, yfit, col="blue", lwd=2) But since, ggplot2 has more appealing

Hi, This might be a simple problem but I don't know how to calculate a random variable density the way panel.histogram does it before it creates the actual density rectangles. The documentation says that it uses the density function but the actual code suggests that the hist.constructor function (which does not seem to be easily accessible). Any suggestion for computing the density values of

Hi everybody, well, I definitely don't understand anything. Why the hist function with freq=FALSE gives such a strange result??? R <- c(-1.10, 0.79, -1.17, -0.53, -0.26, -0.22, 0.29, -0.26, -0.26, 0.39) hist(R, freq=FALSE, breaks=10) Thanks everybody [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello All,* *I want to draw a histogram with density curve. * *For that simply i created a data called*"x" *and i used the function called * hist(x, col = "blue", freq = FALSE),** *from this function i got a histogram*. *After that , i tried this function* ** lines(density(x), col = "red", lwd = 2 ) *but i could not get the density curve. So, Again i used

Hi, Does anybody encounter the same problem when we overlap histogram and density     that the density line seem to shift to the right a little bit?           If you do have the same problem, what should we do to correct that?           Thank you.           par(mar=c(4,4,2,1.2),oma=c(0,0,0,0))     hist(datobs,prob=TRUE, main ="Volume of a catchment from four    

Hi, Currently I have a density plot generated with this snippet. Is there a way I can add a line curve on top of it? I mean in one figure __BEGIN__ myhist <- hist(x col="blue", main = "Density Plot", xlab = "Exp Level", ) __END__ - Gundala Viswanath Jakarta - Indonesia

Hello, To indicate probability densities instead of counts on a histogram, I specify freq = FALSE. However, I expect that summing all top y coordinates over all the intervals of the histogram will provide 1. 1) v <- c(0.2885, 0.2988, 0.3139, 0.2615, 0.3179, 0.3163, 0.2583, 0.3052, 0.2527, 0.3147, 0.3235, 0.2408, 0.2480, 0.3108, 0.3577, 0.2829, 0.2694, 0.3275, 0.3314, 0.2639, 0.3076,

Hi, I am searching for a possibility to display a logarithimic y-axis in a histogram. With plot that's easy (e.g. plot(1:10, log="y") but for histograms this does not work the same way: I tried hist(rnorm(1000), freq=FALSE, seq(-4, 4, .5), ylim=c(0.001, 0.5), log="y") Which gives the expected histogram but also warnings for my log="y" command

Dear Contributors: I have two vectors x and z, and I want to display the histograms of both vectors in the same graph, x in red bars, z in blue bars. If you have any clue on how to do that, I will be very glad to hear it!!!!!! Thanks in advance again, Juan Pablo Fededa [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi everybody, I would like to ask if it is possible using pdf function or some other to print plots in cycle such that every new plot is on new page. like this pdf(file="D:/Plot.pdf",width = 9.25,height=9.25, family="Helvetica",pointsize=8,bg="white") for (i in 1:10){ x <- seq(1,40,1) y <- 2*x+1+5*rnorm(length(x)) hist(y,freq = FALSE) plot(density(y)) }

i want to plot the histogram and the curve in the same graph.if i have a set of data ,i plot the histogram and also want to see what distribution it was.So i want to plot the curve to know what distribution it like. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/how-to-plot-the-histogram-and-the-curve-in--the-same-graph-tp20082506p20082506.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at

Dear All I would like to draw a picture with the density curve of a normal distribution over a histogram of a set of random numbers extracted from the same normal distribution. Is that possible? Thanks in advance, Paul

I have the following data which I tried to draw the probability density plot. Here is the code I have: x <- read.table("mydat.txt"); d <- rep(x$V2,times=x$V3); hist(d,probability=T, xlab="FlowSignal"); But why the y-axis range from 0 to 6, instead of 0 to 1? What's the correct way to plot it? #id flowsignal frequency 1 0.67 1 1 0.70 1 1

Hi list, this is my second try for first post on this list (I tried to post via email and nothing appeared in my email-inbox, so now I try to use the nabble-web-interface) - I hope that you will only have to read one post in your inbox! Okay, my question ... I was able to plot a histogram and add the density()-line to this plot. I was able to plot a cumulative form of this histogram. Yet, I was

For a real data column X value ranged between (56.4521,32317.9) with missing values, I need to overlay 2 plots: histogram & fitted gamma density. I use following to generate histogram. xbk_seq(50,33000,by=100) hist(x,breaks=xbk) But I don't know how to get "fitted gamma density"? In SAS proc capability, I got Shape=2.59, Scale=3481). But when I do plot(dgamma(x,

Hi, I don't understand what hist(x, freq=FALSE) does. At first I thought it would be just the relative frequencies instead of the absolute frequencies, by just computing "frequencies / n" in every category. But with a small dataset the y-values (densities) don't sum to one. Is there a way to get the histogram doing that? Or what is the idea of this density-computation?

Hello, all; I get an unexpected result when trying to plot a probability histogram with R1.9.1 on windows xp: #with the following code: > x <- runif(100,0,1) > hist(x) > hist(x, freq=F) > h <- hist(x, freq=F) > summary(h) # Length Class Mode #breaks 11 -none- numeric #counts 10 -none- numeric #intensities 10 -none- numeric #density 10

Hi all, I'm trying to superimpose a rchisq density line over a histogram with something like: hist(alnlength) lines(density(rchisq(length(alnlength), 4)),col="red") But the rchisq line won't appear anywhere, Anyone knows what I am missing here? Thanks in advance, Albert.
