Something like this? It does an extra y-axis but the principle is the same for an x-axis
# Create the data to be graphed x<-1:10 y1<-x y2<-x^2 # Set the par values op <- par(las=1,xaxs="r",mai=c(1,0.75,1,1)) # Draw first plot plot(x,y1,xlim=c(0,10),ylim=c(0,10), ylab="y1", las = 1) title(main="Multiple Y-Axes in R") # Draw second plot par(new=TRUE) plot(x,y2,xlim=c(0,10),xaxt="n",yaxt="n",ylab="",pch=16) axis(4,at=c(0,20,40,60,80,100)) text(12, 50, "y2", srt = 270, xpd = TRUE) par(op) # reset par John Kane Kingston ON Canada > -----Original Message----- > From: careys...@gmail.com > Sent: Tue, 26 Mar 2013 10:19:09 +0000 > To: r-help@r-project.org > Subject: [R] How do I show real values on a log10 histogram > > Hi, > > I have a histogram with values logged to the base 10 > > hist(log10(x),breaks=60) > > How do I show the log values on the x-axis and a second x-axis showing > the > real values? > > Thanks > > -- > Shane > > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] > > ______________________________________________ > 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. ____________________________________________________________ GET FREE SMILEYS FOR YOUR IM & EMAIL - Learn more at http://www.inbox.com/smileys Works with AIM®, MSN® Messenger, Yahoo!® Messenger, ICQ®, Google Talk™ and most webmails ______________________________________________ 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.
