Thanks Greg.

A useful solution.

An alternative way to draw the symbols (or some approximation of them) is to use the my.symbols function from the TeachingDemos package along with ms.male and ms.female (or your improvement of these, also from the TeachingDemos package). See the 4th example from ?ms.male (or ?ms.female).

Hope this helps,

Subject: Re: [R] boxplot with text and symbols on x

Thanks that was a huge help.

Now I am using this:

pdf("InfLengMaxVarHomogeneity.pdf")
plot(inflorescence_length_Max~Sex,xaxt="n"  #unterdrückt
"normale x- Achse , ylab="inflorescence length max",
main="Bartletts Homogeneity for inflorescence length
Max",data=FemMal_Sex)
Homo<-bartlett.test(FemMal_Sex$inflorescence_length_Max,FemMal
_Sex$Sex)
text( 2, 500, "Bartlett's K-squared=", col='red',adj = c(1,0)
) text( 2, 500, round(Homo$statistic,digits=5), col='red'
,adj = c(0,0)) text( 2, 480, "df=", col='red',adj = c(1,0) )
text( 2, 480, Homo$parameter, col='red' ,adj = c(0,0))

text( 2, 460, "p-value=", col='red', adj = c(1,0)) text( 2,
460, round(Homo$p.value,digits=5), col='red', adj = c(0,0))
axis(1,at=c(1,2) #Mache punkte auf Achse in Position 1 und 2
, lab=expression( "\u2642", "\u2640")) #zeichne dort Mann/Frau Symbole
dev.off()


But the symbols do not appear in the pdf. What is the reason
for that and how can I create a pdf with the symbols.

Thanks again

1. See ?locator
2. Try this:
plot(1:2, pch = c("\u2640", "\u2642"))

Hello R-user community!

I am running R 2.7.0 on a Power Book (Tiger). (I am still R and
statistics
beginner)

I did the following :

pdf("InLnegthMaxHomogeneity.pdf")
boxplot(inflorescence_length_Max~Sex, main="Bartletts
Homogeneity for
inflorescence length",data=FemMal_Sex)
Homo<-bartlett.test(FemMal_Sex$inflorescence_length_Max,FemMal_Sex
$Sex)
text( 2, 500, "Bartlett's K-squared=", col='red',adj =
c(1,0) ) text(
2, 500, round(Homo$statistic,digits=5), col='red' ,adj = c
(0,0))
text( 2, 480, "df=", col='red',adj = c(1,0) ) text( 2, 480,
Homo$parameter, col='red' ,adj = c(0,0))

text( 2, 460, "p-value=", col='red', adj = c(1,0)) text( 2, 460,
round(Homo$p.value,digits=5), col='red', adj = c(0,0))

dev.off()


As I am still not very good in R, I guess it is not the
easiest way
to implement the text and it was kind of fiddling around
to find the
right position for the text.
I would be glad if somebody would have an easier solution.

My second question is about adding symbols (usual male and female
symbol) to
the x-axis to label the boxes.

I would be very glad if somebody could help mw with this.

Many thanks in advance.
