similar to: histogram tick labels

I am producing a series of histograms and would like to control the format of the tick labels. I tried using the exp=1 option, but apparently this can't be set in a higher level plot function. I've unsuccessfully tried to modify the hist command. Any suggestions? Thanks Matt Pocernich -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Dear all, Just a quick one, hopefully. I have a histogram made from the method 'hist()'. How do I get labels on the bars? Such that the bars will have the x axis on the bar, not the frequency of the point but the number of the point itself. To make a quick summary, I want the the numbers from 'losses' (below) to be on the bar's. Thanks, Paul

Hi everyone I am trying to add a percent sign to my labels in a hist() plot. "labels = TRUE" gives me the values, but I don't know how to add the percent sign. I would prefer to annote the plot after drawing it, e.g. using text(), but don't know how to address the positions in a standard histogram. A lattice approach would work too.

Hi all. I need to construct a plot showing words on the x-axis and how many times each word was given as a verbal response on the y-axis as solid bar (frequency). Is there a convenient function to do this in R? I considered hist(), but I'm not sure how to construct the text file. Example: apple, 2 pear, 14 house, 1 beach, 5 computer, 15 Thanks, ~Caitlin [[alternative HTML version

Hi, I would like to plot a histogram with the following codes, and I would like to make the tick intervals smaller. I tried to add "lab=c(1,1,12)", but nothing changes. par(mfrow=c(1,1),font=1, cex=0.8) hist (data1, seq(-0.01,0.3,0.01),freq = FALSE, main="Figure1.",xlab="return",lab=c(1,1,12)) lines(density(data1), col="blue") Could anyone give me sone

Dear All I am using the histogram() function to plot two subsets from my data on the same output display, i.e. there are two histogram plots My code is: histogram( ~ Age | Date, layout = c(1, 2), xlab = "Age (years)", strip = FALSE, strip.left = TRUE, col = "black", border = "white", cex.axis = 1.1, family = "serif", cex.lab =

Hi! I'm having a trouble changing font size of histogram label. I have tried help(hist), but I couldn't find anything explain how to fix label's font size. Could you help me please?

Hi, all I drew a barplot with > barplot(data1, beside=TRUE) and then, I want to labels with hist() like x-axis ticks. How can I do this? Thanks in advance, Hyunchul

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 try to make a histogram from a variable that contains the number of shoots from about 1000 individuals from a specific plant species (the range is 1-110). Those numbers are highly skewed to the right. My question is: how can I make my own classes with the lattice "histogram"? I tried it with "breaks=c(0,5,10,15,20,25,110)" but my "25-110"-class is presented

Hi, I use a vector of data to draw the histogram, but it is different from the graph by SAS. Can you check it for me please? b is a column vector of 4332 hist(b,probability=T,breaks=30,col='lightblue',ylim=c(0,1)) rug(b) When I used rug, I find the records are smaller than 4332. I don't know where I did wrong. Thanks. -- Yi Du [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Is there a simple way to plot a histogram with colors? For example, suppose I generate random points in the N(2,1) distribution: x <- rnorm(100000, mean = 2, sd = 1) Now I would like to plot the histogram: hist(x) but I would like to show the bars with x < 0 in red, and the bars with x >= 0 in lightgreen. Is there any simple way to do it? I think I can do it in two steps:

Is it possible to produce a histogram directly using the hist() function with the common borders removed? It can be done by plotting the histogram object using type 's'teps. my.hist <- hist(x,plot=FALSE) plot(my.hist$breaks,c(0,my.hist$counts),type='s') I would appreciate help Ross Darnell -- University of Queensland, Brisbane QLD 4067 AUSTRALIA Email: <r.darnell at

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,

Dear everybody! I am analysing data from an enquette. The answers are either A or B. How can I draw a histogram without transforming the data from characters to numbers? If the data are saved in a list M, hist(M[,1]) returns: Error in hist.default(M[, 1]) : `x' must be numeric Execution halted Thank you in advance!

Hello, how do you create a histogram with a data frame? year snow.cover 1970 6.5 1971 12.0 1972 14.9 1973 10.0 1974 10.7 1975 7.9 ... mydata=data.frame(year=c(1970,...),snow.cover=c(6.5,...)) hist(mydata) does not work. Many thanks. PR

Dear all, I am trying to create a lattice plot which consists of 1 xyplot and 2 histograms (each for x and y). My first try was like this: x<-rnorm(1000) y<-rnorm(1000) xy <- xyplot(y~x) hist.x <- histogram(x) hist.y <- histogram(y) print(xy, position=c(0, 0.2, 1, 1), more=TRUE) print(hist.x, position=c(0, 0, 1, 0.33),more=T) print(hist.y, position=c(0.8, 0, 1, 1)) Ok, this is

I have two large datasets (156K and 2.06M records). Each row has the hour that an event happened, represented by an integer from 0 to 23. R's histogram is combining some data. Here's the command I ran to get the histogram: > histinfo <- hist(crashes$hour, right=FALSE) Here's histinfo: > histinfo $breaks ?[1] ?0 ?1 ?2 ?3 ?4 ?5 ?6 ?7 ?8 ?9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21

Dear List, Say, we generate data like this- dat<-rnorm(1000,1,2) hist(dat) How do i make the histogram, say, red (col = 2) before X = dat = 0, and rest say, green (col = 3) beyond X = dat = 0 in R? The resulting histogram could be like this http://ehsan.karim.googlepages.com/histogram.JPG (edited) Thanks in advance. Ehsan http://ehsan.karim.googlepages.com/diaryofastatistician

I have the 'breaks' for the histogram ('hist') but I want weight the cells instead of using actual observations. I thought that using freq=FALSE implied that the numbers in 'x' were weights but this turned out to be wrong. Any help and/or comment is very much appreciated.
