Please do your homework first: Read at least the beginning of An Introduction to R or other R tutorial -- there are many. I say this because in your post below you do not seem to realize that R is case sensitive, and you do not seem to know the difference between a data frame and a column thereof and/or how to index them . Saying you are a newbie is not an excuse to avoid making a minimal effort to learn what you need to know. R is not a point and click social application and has a fairly steep (or more properly shallow, as Sarah Goslee, I believe, has noted) learning curve associated with it. If you prefer to avoid this, you may wish to try R Commander, Deducer, RStudio or other R GUI package to avoid this -- check the RGUI page on CRAN for what's there. Obviously, you get only limited functionality in GUI, but it may be sufficient for you.
That said, something like for(i in 1:5) boxplot( dimensionen[,i] ~ gruppe[,i] ) should work, but you will probably be unhappy with the captioning and axis labels. Proper main titles and axis labels can be programatically built, but that requires you to learn a good deal more R than you appear to presently know. -- Bert On Sun, Apr 8, 2012 at 5:51 AM, slyrs66 <andreas.f...@gmx.de> wrote: > Dear R-Users, > I have a newbie-question about producing several plots with five variable > pairs within in one code (loop). > > Problem: > I define two objects, erveryone has five vectors (columns /variables): > > dimensionen <- data.frame(meinspss$attr_diff_gesamt, > meinspss$finanz_diff_gesamt, meinspss$leist_diff_gesamt, > meinspss$soz_diff_gesamt, meinspss$wert_diff_gesamt) > gruppe <- data.frame(meinspss$R1_02, meinspss$R2_02, > meinspss$R3_02,meinspss$R4_02,meinspss$R5_02) > > Now I would like to plot five similar graphs (beanplots, boxplots) for every > pair of vectors (dimension by gruppe) . > > This works: box plot (dimensioned) - I receive a plot with 5 boxes. > > This does not work: boxplot (Dimensionen ~ Gruppe) - I would like to receive > 5 plots > > I get the error message: > Fehler in model.frame.default(formula = dimensionen ~ gruppe) : > ungültiger Typ (list) für die Variable 'Dimensionen' > > Any help is very much appreciated! > > Happy Easter > slyrs66 > > -- > View this message in context: > http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/How-to-produce-serveral-plots-with-pairs-of-vectors-tp4540968p4540968.html > Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > ______________________________________________ > R-help@r-project.org mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html > and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. -- Bert Gunter Genentech Nonclinical Biostatistics Internal Contact Info: Phone: 467-7374 Website: http://pharmadevelopment.roche.com/index/pdb/pdb-functional-groups/pdb-biostatistics/pdb-ncb-home.htm ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
