Use dput() to send data to r-help: dput(Daten) structure(list(Dosis = c(0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 0L, 1L, 1L, 1L), weight = c(6.62, 6.65, 5.78, 5.63, 6.05, 6.48, 5.5, 5.37, 6.25, 6.95, 5.61), sex = structure(c(1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L), .Label = "m", class = "factor")), .Names = c("Dosis", "weight", "sex"), class = "data.frame", row.names = c("1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9", "10", "11"))
You are very close, but the formula version of points will not allow you to modify the result of interaction() so you need to switch to the x, y version: boxplot( Daten$weight~interaction(Daten$Dosis,Daten$sex, drop=TRUE)) points( as.numeric(interaction(Daten$Dosis, Daten$sex, drop=TRUE))+.5, Daten$weight) Will put the dotcharts beside the boxplots(). ------------------------------------- David L Carlson Associate Professor of Anthropology Texas A&M University College Station, TX 77840-4352 -----Original Message----- From: r-help-boun...@r-project.org [mailto:r-help-boun...@r-project.org] On Behalf Of maggy yan Sent: Monday, May 13, 2013 11:38 AM To: R-help@r-project.org Subject: [R] dotcharts next to boxplots my dataset looks like this in the beginning: Dosis weight sex 1 0 6.62 m 2 0 6.65 m 3 0 5.78 m 4 0 5.63 m 5 0 6.05 m 6 0 6.48 m 7 0 5.50 m 8 0 5.37 m 9 1 6.25 m 10 1 6.95 m 11 1 5.61 m I've got all the box plots: boxplot( Daten$weight~interaction(Daten$Dosis,Daten$sex, drop=TRUE) and the points: points(Daten$weight~interaction(Daten$Dosis,Daten$sex, drop=TRUE)) but the points are overlapping their box plots, so I tried to move all the points next to the box plots with this: > points( Daten$weight~interaction(Daten$Dosis,Daten$sex, drop=TRUE) + > 0.2) but it did not work, is there any other way for this?
