v 2.0.1 (sooooh old!) on Win2k I think I know the answer to this but I can hope ... I have data for continuous variables (measures of residents) by a categorical variable in range (1,22), the units in which they live. I want to plot these data with a pair of boxplots one above another with same x-axis (1,22) using par(mfrow=c(2,1)) and then plotting first for the women then for the men.

Was there ever a convenient method provided to add boxplots to the current plot at specified x values? There was a question by Martin Maechler some time ago here, but I could seem to find any satisfactory resolution of it. I see that there is an add=T option to boxplot and bxp, but I don't see how to set the x-values. url: http://www.econ.uiuc.edu Roger Koenker email roger at

Hi, How can I get the values of mean and median (not only points but values too) on the boxplot. I am using boxplot function from graphics package. Following is my data set > df [1] 5 1 1 0 0 10 38 47 2 5 0 28 5 8 81 21 12 9 1 12 2 4 22 3 > mean.val <- sapply(df,mean) > boxplot(df,las = 1,col = "light blue") > points(seq(df), mean.val,

Hello everybody, often I plot boxplots with different number of boxes (up to 200 boxes). I'd like to give every box a readable label on the x-axis. Therefore, I decrease the fontsize of the names and plot them vertical. But if you zoom into the plot (pdf) you will find an offset between the tickmark and the label - the label is shifted to the right. If you vary the box.count in the

Dear R-core team, I think I found a small inconsistency in the boxplot function. I don't want to post it as a bug since I'm not sure this might be considered as one according to the FAQ --- and this is not a major problem. Don't hesitate to tell me if I'm wrong. If you try to do a boxplot on a matrix and set the "at" argument to some vector different from 1:n, n is the

Full_Name: Steve Ellison Version: 2.4.1 OS: Windows, Linux Submission from: (NULL) (194.73.101.157) bxp() allows specifcation of box locations with at=, but neither adjusts xlim= to fit at nor does it respect xlim provided explicitly. This is because bxp() now includes explicit xlim as c(0.5, n+0.5), without checking for explicitly supplied xlim (or ylim if horizontal). This also prevents

Dear r-bugs, I'd like to be able to draw boxplots with solid or dotted whisker lines. The lty argument is currently ignored by boxplot(), and indeed hardwired in bxp(). It's not very difficult to customize these functions to generate various types of boxplots, but generally it might be an idea to allow the user to pass a few more graphical arguments to boxplot(). The approach might as

Hello there, I was wondering if anyone might be able to help me as I'm pretty new to R. I'm trying to create a boxplot from a data table returned from an sproc. I have the following code, which generates the plot as I'd like it: library("RODBC"); conn <- odbcConnect("datawarehouse"); # connect to datawarehouse results <- sqlQuery(conn, "call

R helpers I am getting to grips with R but came across a small problem today that I could not fix by myself. I have 3 text files, each with a single column of data. I read them in using: myData1<-scan("C:/Program Files/R/myData1.txt") myData2<-scan("C:/Program Files/R/myData2.txt") myData3<-scan("C:/Program Files/R/myData3.txt") I wanted to produce a

Hi I have two vectors of integers and I am plotting a box plot that contains both vectors. I have done the following: vec1 < -scan("file1") vec2 < -scan("file2") boxplot(vec1, vec2, range=0, horizontal=TRUE, names=c("One","Two"), boxwex=0.15) I managed to get both boxplots on the same figure but there they are wide apart. Is there a way to reduce

There seems to be a problem with partial matching of argument names in boxplot(), in respect of the "horizontal" argument. I don't recall seeing this issue discussed previously. My apologies if I am being redundant. (A scan of CRAN revealed that someone had experienced problems with the "horizontal" argument, but he was spelling it out in full, so that was a different

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

Hi folks, I have a vaiable Y and an associated factor Z at several (13) levels. boxplot(Y~Z) produces a nice array of boxplots, one for each level of Z, and each duly labaelled with its level of Z. I would like to superpose on each boxplot the actual data points which it represents, i.e. do something conceptually (though not in real R) expressed as points(Y~Z) or points(Z,Y) It can

When plotting using the cex.axis argument to boxplot(), the size of the plotting symbols beyond the whiskers of the boxplot are being changes. Example: par(mfrow=c(2,1)) boxplot(c(rnorm(10), 10), horizontal=TRUE, main="Test", las=2, cex.axis=2) boxplot(c(rnorm(10), 10), horizontal=TRUE, main="Test", las=2, cex.axis=1) This is from the following line in bxp()

Hola, por mi parte doy por zanjado el tema. He llegado a la causa raíz de mi problema: falta de conocimiento de la forma en la que se debe usar la ayuda de las funciones de R y gracias a vuestra colaboración, ¡ya se cómo hacerlo :) !   Nuevamente,gracias a todos. Saludos,   Fernando   -- ____________________________________   Hola,   La misma función boxplot indica la existencia de estas

Boxplot and bxp seem to have changed behaviour a bit of late (R 2.4.1). Or maybe I am mis-remembering. An annoying feature is that while at=3:6 will work, there is no way of overriding the default xlim of 0.5 to n+0.5. That prevents plotting boxes on, for example, interval scales - a useful thing to do at times. I really can see no good reason for bxp to hard-core the xlim=c(0.5, n+0.5) in the

Hi! My name is Martin and I have a problem concerning the boxplot function in R. I want my boxes to be limited by the 1st and 3rd quartile and NOT the 'hinges' values that are the default setting in R. Do anyone knows if there is any command that I could do to change this default setting? Sincerely Martin Olofsson

Hi, the graphical parameter "cex.axis" does not have any affect for "boxplot": data(iris) boxplot(iris[,1:4], ylab="y", cex.lab=2, cex.axis=2) The patch is simply adding "cex.axis" to the search for axis relevant parameters in "bxp": ax.pars <- pars[names(pars) %in% c("xaxt", "yaxt", "las",

I tried the following command to produce boxplot of diagonals in pairs function: > pairs(t1.5,diag.panel=boxplot) Error in pairs.default(t1.5, diag.panel = boxplot) : The panel function made a new plot The graphics device draws two graphs, one with a rectangle at (1,1) in 7x7 layout and the other with boxplot(t1.5$wind) at (1,2). pairs function help file has a similar example with

Hi all, I have been previously been using scatterplot3d package to create some graphs but unfortunately it does not allow me to rotate the plot on all three axis. The cloud() function in the lattice package does allow me to do so. When I was using scatterplot3d I was using a script (Shown Below) to calculate the mean, quartiles and range limits for all three axis and I was representing that on the
