similar to: How to change the scale of the Y axis?

Dear all Problem: hist()-function, scale = ?percent? I want to generate histograms for changing underlying data. In order to make them comparable, I want to fix the y-axis (vertical-axis) to, e.g., 0%, 10%, 20%, 30% as well as to fix the spaces, too. So the y-axis in each histogram should be identical. Currently, I have 100 histograms and the y-axis scales changes in each. Here is my code:

Dear R- list, I have some data to present with histograms. Therefore I used hist(...). I have few values with almost 80% of the frequencies (totaly 800) and some other values with low frequencies ( totaly 5 -10 ) that I want to emphasize. Therefore I want to "cut" the y-axis on 100, but I don't know how to deal with this. Thanks in advance, Michael Graber

Hi, I'm trying to create a histogram with R. The problem is that the frequency is high for a couple of x-axis categories (e.g. 1500) and low for most of the x-axis categories (e.g. 50) http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/file/n2237476/LK3_hist.jpg . When I create the histogram, it is not very informative, because only the high frequencies can be seen clearly. Is there any way I could cut the

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 All, I would like to be able to plot histograms/densities on a semi-log or log-log scale. I found several suggestions online http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/05/09/12044.html https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2002-June/022295.html http://www.harding.edu/fmccown/R/#histograms Now, consider the code snippet taken from http://www.harding.edu/fmccown/R/#histograms # Get a random

I've looked long and hard for this, but maybe I am missing something... There is a nice module that displays histograms reflected in the y axis, i.e. http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/RGraphGallery.php?graph=136 but is it possible to reflect in the x-axis, so to have two datasets, one pointing up and one down rather than left and right? I haven't been able to find a way to plot this

All, I have been trying to get calls to hist(...) to be plotted with the y-axis having a log scale. I have tried: par(ylog=TRUE) I have also looked at the histogram package.

I have what is probably a simple problem. I have a data file from an MCMC Bayes estimation problem that is a vector of 500,000 numeric values (just one variable) ranging from 100,000 to 700,000. I need to display the histogram of this data in a high quality graphic for a figure in a journal publication. I want 100 bins so as to display a reasonable complete and smooth histogram, and I need the

Hi, I'm plotting a multiple histogram using the function multhist {package plotrix}, something like: library(plotrix) mh <- list(rnorm(200, mean=200, sd=50), rnorm(200, mean=250, sd=50)) multhist(mh) In this graph y-axis represents the frequency of observations.... but I would like it to be scaled into relative frequencies, does anybody know how to do this with multhist or similar

Hi: The y axis on the hist function seems to set its limits oddly. sometimes, it covers the full range of the data and sometimes it stops one major tick short. I have had this behavior with a variety of data sets, and it can easily be reproduced by just running the following several times: hist(rnorm(100000)) I have tried explicitly setting ylim to the range of values produced by rnorm

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,

I would like to plot two data sets (frequency (y-axis) of mean values for 0-1(x=axis)) on a single histogram for comparison. The hist() only allow the overlay of two histograms, and although barplot() allows beside=TRUE, it does not show frequency values (like hist) but rather all of the values. Is there any way that I can use the hist() to plot two data sets similar to the barplot(). Any help or

Sorry if this topic has been discussed earlier. Currently, hist(..., log="y") fails with > hist(rexp(1000, 1), log="y") Warning messages: 1: In plot.window(xlim, ylim, "", ...) : nonfinite axis=2 limits [GScale(-inf,2.59218,..); log=TRUE] -- corrected now 2: In title(main = main, sub = sub, xlab = xlab, ylab = ylab, ...) : "log" is not a graphical

hist() is designed so that the total area sums to 1. You should build you desired behavior using a barchart. ?

I'm trying to do something very simple... I wan to plot a histogram where the y axis represent the percentage of the total sample that each bin represents. I know how to plot a histogram with the counts and density... but can't find anything that gives me perenct of sample on the y axis. Any help is appriciated Below is the script I'm working with par(mfrow=c(1,2))

Hi R-helpers, I wish to produce frequency histograms of all of the variables in my dataframe (except some identifying variables). I have tried >hist(dataframe[,3:20]) to produce histograms of the 3rd through 20th variables in my dataframe, but R doesn't like that. Could anyone provide a suggestion? Also, once I produce the histograms, I'd like to save them as graphic files on my

Is the kolmogorov-smirnov test valid on both continuous and discrete data? I don't think so, and the example below helped me understand why. A suggestion on testing the discrete data would be appreciated. Thanks, a <- rnorm(1000, 10, 1);a # normal distribution a b <- rnorm(1000, 12, 1.5);b # normal distribution b c <- rnorm(1000, 8, 1);c # normal distribution c d <- rnorm(1000,

I'm learning how to use tapply.

Hello, After spending sometime trying to generate histograms of all the numeric variables in a data frame using a for loop, I realized I could use apply to create the histograms. This was one of those few moments when I `see' the alternative to looping. So, I can generate all the histograms with this command: apply(toblo.df[,-c(40,52)],2,hist) # 40 and 52 are ID's When I do this, the

Dear R-help listers, I am new. I just want to get helps on how to plot two histograms overlapped in the same plane coordinate. What I did is very ugly. Could you please help me to improve it? I want to got a plot with semi- transparent overlapping region. And, I want to know how to specify the filled colors of the different histograms. I also prefer other solutions other than ggplot2. Many
