ok this is close, thanks for your effort i will be more specific about my data set now, maybe that will help.
there are 2 cats, labeled rs29 and rs30 there are a number of experimental results, i will make a graph set for each one. for example we can look at the results of BRCLNET. the tasks are devided into right middle and left the tasks are performed over time 1 to 10. i was a boxplot per cat per side (1 left 1 middle 1 right) over the time (1 to 10) at this point I have adjusted the code you sent me to this: mydata <- data.frame(BRCLNET, cat, side, group) mydata then gives me a list of 4 columns: BRCLNET, cat, side, time that is perfect then: ggplot(mydata , aes( group, BRCLNET, fill = cat ))+ geom_boxplot() + + facet_wrap(~side) this gives me a figure divided into 3 columns: LEFT MIDDLE RIGHT with 2 boxes in each (RS29 and RS30). the yaxis is labeled BRCLNET and the xaxis is labeled time. but there is not a separate box for each time point. there are only 2 boxes per plot. i would like to have six separate plots: 1. LEFT RS29 BRCLNET over time (10 boxes) 2. MIDDLE RS29 BRCLNET overtime (10 boxes) ..... 6. RIGHT RS30 BRCLNET over time thanks for your help On Wed, Oct 31, 2012 at 8:16 AM, John Kane [via R] < ml-node+s789695n4647989...@n4.nabble.com> wrote: > I am not sure I understand exactly what you want but does this do anything > like what you want? > > library(ggplot2) > mydata <- data.frame(result = rnorm(100), group = rep(c("1", "2"), each > = 50), > side = sample(c("L", "R"), 100, replace = TRUE) , > dtime = rep(1:10, each=10)) > > p <- ggplot(mydata , aes( group, result, fill = side ))+ geom_boxplot() > + > facet_wrap(~dtime) > p > > John Kane > Kingston ON Canada > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: [hidden email]<http://user/SendEmail.jtp?type=node&node=4647989&i=0> > > Sent: Tue, 30 Oct 2012 11:21:49 -0700 (PDT) > > To: [hidden email]<http://user/SendEmail.jtp?type=node&node=4647989&i=1> > > Subject: [R] boxplots of various levels > > > > noob here > > trying to make boxplots of some data > > i would like to separate the boxplots according to conditons of various > > levels > > for example: > > > > i have > > group:1 and 2, each group performed tests consisting of > > condition A,B,C,D > > side: left and right > > time: 1 to 10 > > > > I would like separate boxplots of the results (x) of the tests (numeric) > > for > > each group under each condition on each side over time. > > > > so far i have set it up like this: > > boxplot(test$x~test$time) > > this gives me the plot for all vaues of x in each time bin. basicaly i > > would need a command that tells R to include only the data that agrees > > with > > the group, condition, and side I set. > > something like > > boxplot(test$x~test$time) where > > test$group=1,test$condition=A,test$side=left > > > > can this be done? > > > > > > > > > > -- > > View this message in context: > > http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/boxplots-of-various-levels-tp4647917.html > > Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > > > ______________________________________________ > > [hidden email] > > <http://user/SendEmail.jtp?type=node&node=4647989&i=2>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. > > ____________________________________________________________ > Send any screenshot to your friends in seconds... > Works in all emails, instant messengers, blogs, forums and social > networks. > TRY IM TOOLPACK at http://www.imtoolpack.com/default.aspx?rc=if2 for FREE > > ______________________________________________ > [hidden email] <http://user/SendEmail.jtp?type=node&node=4647989&i=3>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. > > > ------------------------------ > If you reply to this email, your message will be added to the discussion > below: > > http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/boxplots-of-various-levels-tp4647917p4647989.html > To unsubscribe from boxplots of various levels, click > here<http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/template/NamlServlet.jtp?macro=unsubscribe_by_code&node=4647917&code=ZHlzb25zcGhlcmUyM0BnbWFpbC5jb218NDY0NzkxN3wtMTkzNDk0ODEyOA==> > . > NAML<http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/template/NamlServlet.jtp?macro=macro_viewer&id=instant_html%21nabble%3Aemail.naml&base=nabble.naml.namespaces.BasicNamespace-nabble.view.web.template.NabbleNamespace-nabble.view.web.template.NodeNamespace&breadcrumbs=notify_subscribers%21nabble%3Aemail.naml-instant_emails%21nabble%3Aemail.naml-send_instant_email%21nabble%3Aemail.naml> > -- Kenneth Stephen Dyson Chercheur postdoctoral Groupe de recherche sur le système nerveux central (GRSNC) Université de Montréal Département de physiologie 2960, chemin de la tour, bureau 4130 Montréal (Québec) Canada H3T 1J4 Tel: (514) 343-6111 ext 3333 Courriel: kenneth.dy...@umontreal.ca Site Web: http://sites.google.com/site/dysonsphere23/ -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/boxplots-of-various-levels-tp4647917p4648045.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
