Dear All: One more thing. I want to add the normal curve to the histogram. Is there away to stretch the peak of the curve to the top of the histogram or at least near to the top of the histogram. Please see the code below. Lizard.tail.lengths <- c(6.2, 6.6, 7.1, 7.4, 7.6, 7.9, 8, 8.3, 8.4, 8.5, 8.6,8.8, 8.8, 9.1, 9.2, 9.4, 9.4, 9.7, 9.9, 10.2, 10.4, 10.8,11.3, 11.9) x<-seq(5,12, 0.001)

Dear List, When I plot a histogram with 'freq=FALSE' and overlay the histogram with a normal pdf curve, everything looks as expected, as follows: x <- rnorm(1000) hist(x, freq=FALSE) curve(dnorm(x), add=TRUE, col="blue") What do I need to do if I want to show the frequencies (freq=TRUE) with the same normal pdf overlay, so that the plot would still look the same? Regards,

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

Hi, I am facing the problem that I want to plot a histogram chart set freq to true and overlay with normal or weibull or exponential distribution curve. The sample code is shown as below: >samp<-c(-8.2262,-8.2262,-8.2262,-8.20209,-8.09294,-8.07321,-8.07321, -8.07321,-8.07175,-8.04948,-8.04948,-8.04948,-8.03848,-8.03848,

Hey R-Comunity, I'd like to print out an histogram of some experimental data and add a smooth curve of a normal distribution with an ideally generated population having the same mean and standard deviation like the experimental data. The experimental data is set as vector x and its name is set to group.name. I paint the histogram as follows: hist(data, freq=FALSE,

Hi Abou, Try this: library(plotrix) curve(rescale(dnorm(x ,mean=mean(Lizard.tail.lengths),sd=sd(Lizard.tail.lengths)), c(0,6)),add=TRUE, col=2, lwd = 2) Jim On Mon, Sep 25, 2017 at 9:35 AM, AbouEl-Makarim Aboueissa <abouelmakarim1962 at gmail.com> wrote: > Dear All: > > One more thing. > > I want to add the normal curve to the histogram.

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,

Hello, I'm taking samples from certain distributions and drawing a density distribution over the histogram of the samples It works fine for the chi-square and for the normal, but not for the cauchy. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Thanks x <- rchisq(10000, df = 4) hist(x, freq = FALSE, breaks=100) curve(dchisq(x, df = 4), col = 2, add = TRUE) x <- rnorm(10000) hist(x, freq =

Hi r-users,   I would like to overlap a smooth line on the histogram.  I tried using spline but it does not work. sq     <- seq(0,900,by=50) sq.50  <- as.character(sq) datobs <- sum_pos ## first, plot histogram histo <- hist(datobs,breaks=sq,freq=F) ## extract counts from histogram and calculate the probability in ## each specified interval. Also check the length of the interval is

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

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

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

Hello, I'm trying to compare the fit of two distributions, normal and gamma, to a histogram of my response variable. rate<-mean(na.omit(rwb$post.f.crwn.length))/var(na.omit(rwb$post.f.crwn.length)) shape<-rate*mean(na.omit(rwb$post.f.crwn.length)) hist((rwb$post.f.crwn.length), main="rwb$post.f.crwn.length")

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, I thought that I had read somewhere that there was a really simple way to overlay the probability density function of a normal distribution over a histogram, after the histogram has already been plotted. Possibly a one word command. I've found this email from the archives, but I don't think this is what I'm looking for. I thought there was something more simple than

Hello, I am trying to fit my histogram to a smooth Gaussian curve(the data closely resembles one except a few bars). This is my code : #!/usr/bin/Rscript out_file = "irc_20M_opencl_test.png" png(out_file) scan("my.csv") -> myvals hist(myvals, breaks = 50, main = "My Distribution",xlab = "My Values") pdens <- density(myvals, na.rm=T) plot(pdens,

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, I have a couple of observations, a question or two, and perhaps a suggestion related to the plotting of density on the y-axis within the hist() function when freq=FALSE. I was using the function and trying to develop an intuitive understanding of what the density is telling me. After reading through this fairly helpful post:

There were some questions about hist() a couple of days ago which triggered this post. My question/suggestion is about the y-axis in hist. There are reasons to prefer making the y-axis density=relative frequency/bin width. One reason is that the height of the plot does not depend on the bin width; another is that if your histogram is in density then you can easily superimpose a smooth theoretical
