I have a text file of data as below and doing a ggplot line plot of all the ids as separate mini line plots which works with the following code.
Problem how do I order the dates for each id plot on the x axis so that the dates are going from oldest to most recent???? Thanks in advance Dave CODE: a<-read.table("DATA",header=TRUE); b<-a[order(as.Date(a$date, format="%m/%d/%Y")),] ggplot(data=b) + geom_line(aes(x=date, y=value, group=id, colour= factor(id))) + facet_wrap(~id, scales = "free") DATA: id date value 001 8/16/10 <0.16 001 10/25/10 <0.16 001 11/8/10 0.42 001 11/22/10 0.81 001 12/6/10 <0.16 002 8/18/10 2.93 002 10/25/10 2.4 002 11/8/10 1.36 002 11/22/10 1.22 004 8/20/10 0.77 004 10/25/10 0.85 004 11/8/10 1.22 004 11/22/10 0.21 004 12/6/10 1.81 004 10/26/11 0.54 005 6/4/09 1.33 005 6/18/10 1.32 005 8/25/10 2.5 005 9/15/10 1.3 005 10/25/10 1.1 005 11/8/10 0.66 005 11/22/10 0.84 005 12/6/10 7.42 005 11/4/11 1.21 006 9/23/10 0.97 006 10/25/10 2.25 006 11/8/10 0.51 006 11/22/10 0.53 006 12/6/10 0.41 008 8/25/10 3.14 008 10/25/10 3.58 008 11/8/10 2.41 008 12/6/10 2.08 008 6/11/12 3.2 009 10/6/10 0.24 009 11/22/10 0.34 009 2/2/11 0.58 009 2/16/11 0.54 009 3/2/11 0.25 009 3/16/11 0.39 010 9/14/10 0.28 010 2/2/11 0.19 010 2/16/11 0.42 010 3/2/11 0.39 010 3/16/11 0.26 011 8/20/10 <0.16 011 2/2/11 <0.16 011 2/16/11 <0.16 011 3/2/11 <0.16 011 3/16/11 1.76 011 10/26/11 <0.16 012 12/14/10 0.48 012 2/2/11 1.2 012 2/16/11 0.44 012 3/2/11 0.32 012 3/16/11 0.34 013 11/13/09 0.73 013 8/19/10 3.32 013 2/2/11 13.7 014 2/6/13 1.35 014 4/24/13 0.85 014 8/18/10 0.66 014 10/5/10 0.68 014 10/27/10 0.53 014 2/2/11 0.54 014 2/16/11 0.49 014 3/2/11 0.31 014 3/16/11 0.4 014 6/29/11 0.53 014 8/15/11 0.55 014 8/15/12 0.94 014 10/31/12 0.74 015 12/10/10 0.4 015 2/2/11 0.44 015 3/2/11 0.38 015 3/16/11 0.43 016 12/17/10 0.18 016 1/25/11 <0.16 016 2/2/11 0.53 016 2/2/11 0.54 016 2/16/11 0.46 016 3/2/11 0.29 016 3/16/11 0.2 016 3/20/12 0.18 016 3/26/12 0.23 016 3/30/12 0.52 016 4/2/12 0.33 016 4/23/12 0.3 017 11/17/11 3.35 017 12/9/11 2.56 018 2/25/13 18.1 018 3/11/13 14.9 018 3/25/13 11.1 018 4/10/13 8.47 018 4/22/13 15.9 ______________________________________________ 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.
