similar to: X-Axis Problem with Multhist Plot

Dear R community members, I am very new to R, so I hope I didn´t oversee the answer to my question in the manuals and faqs. I am trying to create a histogram containing several data sets (I would like to see how the dependent variable is distributed for the different groups). This should be possible using the function multhist contained in the plotrix package. (I am using R 2.2.1, in windows XP).

Hi, I found some weird behavior of the function multhist in the plotrix package and I would like to ask you about it: so, it works well to put two histograms next to each other, but I don't understand the breaks… so for example, library(plotrix) mh <- list(rnorm(200, mean=100, sd=10), rnorm(200, mean=100, sd=10)) multhist(mh) #produces a plot with

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 All, I am in the annoying position of having to present some data to someone who seems to be somewhat less than numerate. I need to label the y-axes of a multhist with the y-axis labeled not as counts but as percentage of a population. Plotting the standard histogram is in a way fine, all I need is to: -- have a left-handside y-axis labels for pop 1 and a right-handside y-axis labels for pop2

Hi, I have two histograms created separately using the following code. It creates two separate figures. dat <- read.table(file="GDS1096.modelout", head = FALSE ) __BEGIN__ dat <- read.table(file="GDS1096.modelout", head = FALSE ) hist(dat$V2, main="AIC Freq", xlab = "\# Component", breaks = 36, xlim = c(0,max(dat$V2)), col = "dark red",

Thanks in advance for any suggestions: I am using the 'multhist' function in the 'plotrix' package to display histograms of some variable 'x' given some value of another variable 'z' -- for example, separate histograms for some variable according to sex (or another dichotomous) variable. Thus I am using something like the following:

I have lots of data that needs to be viewed as a histogram, and I've found the multhist package to work quite nicely--for the most part. The only problem is that I can't figure out a way to get the x-axis to make any logical sense. I have a data set with exactly 26 different values, but when I try and plot it with multhist, There are tick marks at 0.5, 3.5...26. When I enlarge

Hello R Users, I have two sets of values x <- c(7, 7 , 8, 9, 15, 17, 18) y <- c(7, 8, 9, 15, 17, 19, 20, 20, 25, 23, 22) I am able to create multi histogram using multhist(). But not able to control the 'xlim'. ie the xaxis is showing 7.5, 13, 18, 23 1st on what basis it is calculated 2nd I want it to be like 7 8 9 15 17 and so on Can any one help me With Regards Subhabrata

Hi all, Please consider the following code: require(plotrix) l <- list(rnorm(50),rnorm(50,sd=2),rnorm(50,mean=3)) multhist(l) I have two things I need help with: (1) In the output, there are empty spaces on the x-axis. How would I eliminate these spaces? I want a nice, smooth, empty-spaceless x-axis. (2) How could I add tracing lines to each histogram? I am undoubtedly using the wrong

i am working with two sets of likert scale type (4 distinct values) data: dataA <- rep(1:4, c(3,2,2,4)) dataB <- rep(1:4, c(5,4,3,2)) i can now (bar)plot both of these separately and compare the distributions. plot(table(dataA), type='h') plot(table(dataB), type='h') is there a way to plot both of them in one plot, so that the bars for value "1" (dataA: 3,

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

Dear Contributors: I have two vectors x and z, and I want to display the histograms of both vectors in the same graph, x in red bars, z in blue bars. If you have any clue on how to do that, I will be very glad to hear it!!!!!! Thanks in advance again, Juan Pablo Fededa [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi all, I am interested in performing a cluster analysis on ecological data from forests in Pennsylvania. I would like to develop definitions for forest types (red maple forests, upland oak forests, etc.(AH AR in attached table)) based on measured attributes in each forest type. To do this, I would like to 'draw clusters' around forest types based on information from various tree

Hi all, I'd be greatful for any assistance with these two problem I'm facing: 1. How can I combine weighted.hist() and multhist() from the plotrix library so that I can display two weighted histograms on the same chart ? (if anyone is familiar with a different library or function that already does that, that would be great to know as well ) 2. How can I display weighted histograms or
