Hello!
I am trying to understand how ggplot2's geom_bar treats NAs.
The help file says:
library(ggplot2)
?geom_bar
na.rm: If FALSE, the default, missing values are removed with a warning. If
TRUE, missing values are silently removed.
I am trying it out:
md <- data.frame(a = c(letters[1:5], letters[1:4], letters[1:3], rep(NA,
3)))
str(md); levels(md$a)
ggplot(data = md, mapping = aes(x = a)) +
geom_bar(na.rm = F)
It runs without warnings and generates counts for each factor level AS WELL
AS the NAs. Makes sense.
Now, I don't want the NAs to be counted. So, I run:
ggplot(data = md, mapping = aes(x = a)) +
geom_bar(na.rm = T)
But I still have NAs in the picture. Why?
What am I missing?
Thank you!
