Hello, dear R users. What is the easiest and the most visualli understandable way to analize dependency of numerical variable on two factors? Is the boxplot(y~f1+f2) the good way? It seems that this formula does not work. -- Evgeniy

Hello, dear R users. I've already sent a question here, but I'm not sure that it had been read. I need to visualize classification of my numerical data based on 2-3 factors. As I suppose, the best way is a tree. With an orbitrary function at the ends (leaves), or at least with means of my data at the ends. What is the way to do it? As I found, ctree offers binary classification, but

Hi, I'm new to the whole R-thing as a replacement for Matlab, not disappointed sofar ;) I found out how to make nice looking boxplots, but i also would like the make a boxplot with 5% and 95% instead of the standard 25 and 75% quantiles. My csv input looks something like: LOCATION FILTER NR DATE VALUE MONTH Peelhorst01 1 14-Jan-94 23.07 1 Peelhorst01 1 28-Jan-94 23.68 1 Peelhorst01 1

Hello, dear R-users. I have 2-d dotplot with two variables: x, y. Dots on this dotplot are grouped in human-recogniseable areas. These areas are not round-shaped nor oval-shaped. They are free-form, but still recogniseable by an operator. What is ability in R to graphically (per mouse) define some area and to select all the cases felt in it? 'identify' is OK for 5-10 cases, but what

Dear List, I have a two-part question related to bpplot(), a box-percentile plot function in the Hmisc package. Take the example given in the Help for bpplot(), for instance. (1) How does one set but not draw the y-axis? What I did was, bpplot(... , yaxt="n"), but that apparently does not work (though it works for boxplot()). (2) How does one display the mean value of each variable

The standard R boxplot appears to use quartiles to determine the height of the rectangles and a range parameter - RNG - (default=1.5 I think) that determines the length of the whiskers as <= RNG x Interquartile Range. Is it possible to instead define the range as extending to the 95th percentile? If so, how would this be done? nb, I'm plotting multiple boxplots on a single chart so a

bonjour, je voudrais savoir s'il serait possible de sugg?rer aux d?veloppeurs de R de proposer une option suppl?mentaire pour les moustaches, ? savoir les placer sur d1 et d9 comme c'est pr?conis? dans les programmes du secondaire en France, option du style boxplot (serie,range=91) par exemple... i would like to know if it is possible to have (with the agrement of developpers)

I am a new and unexperienced user of R and got so far as to know how to produce boxplots. I have no experience of messing with function code, so presently I do not know how to create a boxplot with group means instead of group medians. If somebody could help me either replace the median with the mean or superimpose the mean onto the existing boxplot, it would be appreciated.

Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated: I need to produce a custom plot i haven't come across in R. Basically, I want to show means, 1st standard deviation and 5th and 95th percentiles visually, using something resembling a boxplot. Is it possible to completely customize a boxplot so that it shows means as the bar (instead of, not as well as medians), standard deviations at

Hi, I want to plot means with standard deviations of Total Nitrogen (TN) across 4 stations (S1-S4) and over 3 years (2007-2009). I want this plot in one panel. I do not want medians (bwplot, boxplot). I have tried a few different packages and it seems that ggplots with plotmeans was the fastest (I am not extremely skilled in writing my own scripts). Unfortunately, there is no grouping

Dear List, I'd like to make boxplots of a large number of observations (+/- 20.000), which are distributed log-normal and right skewed. The problem is that with standard boxplots a too large number of observations are displayed as outliers. I also tried to display the log of the observations, but even then there are to may outliers to my taste. So I'd like to change the standard IQR box

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 everybody, I am a newbie in R. I would like to use the panel.bpplot function on my data set but I have some problems. Can this function work on matrix? My data set have some NaN and when I run panel.bpplot function it returns error due to the presence of NaN. How Can I solve this?

Hi, I haven't found in R a possibility to draw a boxplot with a diamond shape (means and CI). Does anyone know how to plot it ? thanks,

Hi all, I'm just getting started with R and I would appreciate some help. I'm having trouble creating a boxplot with whiskers at the 95th and 5th percentiles instead of at 1.5 * IQR. I have read the relevant documentation, and checked existing mails on this topic. I found a small modification that should work : https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2001-November/016817.html and tried to

Dear Nabble. I am trying to draw a box percentile plot with trellis using the panel in Hmisc. I really want to colour the plots in. I can alter several of features of the plot by changing the trellis par settings but I just can’t fill the shape in. Here is some example code which alters line colour and dot symbol: require(lattice) require(Hmisc)

Hello everyone, I have tried to look for this everywhere and so far have no luck. I have a plotMeans(DV, IV1, IV2, error.bars="se") graph that plots my data (DV-continuous, IVs are factors, IV1 - two levels, IV2-four levels). I am trying to increase a scale of my y-axis (to be consistent with my other graphs), but unfortunately nothing works with "plotMeans" function, which

Hi, there! I finally became a disciple of 'R', after having lost years of my life handling data with a popular, rather wide-spread spreadsheet-software. Now I want to plot the results of many runs of my simulation over time, so that the means +/- Standard error are on the y-axis, and time on the x-axis. I have tried 'boxplot', with timesteps as the grouping variable, but did
