Hi list,
I have data in a dataframe t1, with a column for different amounts
spent, a column what it was spent on, and a column with dates, from
which I create a new column with months.
Example:
amount <- rep(c(10,20,30),3)
what <- rep(c("food","books","cycling"),3)
when <- c(rep("2008-09-05",5),rep("2008-10-07",4))
t1 <- data.frame(amount,what,when)
t1$when <- as.Date(t1$when)
t1$month <- format(as.Date(t1$when),"%b")
I want to have a barplot for each month, showing the sum spent in the
different categories.
I figured I can do this with traditional graphics using:
barplot(xtabs(amount~what+month, data=t1),beside=T)
But I'd like to be able to do this in lattice.
I tried:
barchart(amount~what|month,t1)
But that doesn't sum the data for t1$amount for each month first.
How could I do that?
Thanks,
Marianne
