All,
I have:
sales <- c(2300,900,155,102,42,10)
names(sales) <- c("Christmas","Valentine's Day",
"Mother's Day","Father's Day",
"Thanksgiving","New Year's Day")
barplot(sales,ylim=c(0,2500))
But it doesn't place all of the name labels on the plot. So I tried:
sales <- c(2300,900,155,102,42,10)
names(sales) <- c("Christmas","Valentine's Day",
"Mother's Day","Father's Day",
"Thanksgiving","New Year's Day")
barplot(sales,ylim=c(0,2500),las=2)
But there wasn't enough room at the bottom margin for the labels. Then I tried:
sales <- c(2300,900,155,102,42,10)
names(sales) <- c("Christmas","Valentine's Day",
"Mother's Day","Father's Day",
"Thanksgiving","New Year's Day")
barplot(sales,horiz=TRUE,xlim=c(0,2500),las=1)
Still, not enough room in the margin for the labels. Now, I am going to be
introducing students to barplots in R tonight and I'm looking for a simple way
to fix this label problem without scaring them too much.
Any thoughts?
D.
