library (car) aa <- data.frame(x=c(2, 5, 6, 7, 8), + y=c(5, 10, 9, 12, 11), + ch=c("N", "Q", "R", "S", "T"), + stringsAsFactors=FALSE)
scatterplot(aa$x,aa$y,smooth = FALSE, grid = FALSE, frame = FALSE,regLine=F) Both x and y boxplots are correct and in particular the median of the x box is at 6 which is confirmed > median(aa$x) [1] 6 Now I do only one addition to the scatterplot: I add xlim > scatterplot(aa$x,aa$y,smooth = FALSE, grid = FALSE, frame = FALSE,regLine=F,xlim=c(0,8)) This causes the boxplot on x-axis to be in error: 1) the lower whisker starts now from zero 2) the median is between 4 and 6 and no longer at 6 as before > sessionInfo() R version 3.6.3 (2020-02-29) [1] car_3.0-7 [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see 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.
