In a  histogram , is it possible to have different colors?
Example. I generated

x <- rnorm(1000000)
hist(x)

I want the histogram to have different colors based on the following condition
mean(x)+sd(x)   with red color and  mean(x) - sd(x) with red color as
well. The  middle  one with blue color.

bkrs <- hist(x); hist(x, col= ifelse(bkrs$mids< 0-1,"red", ifelse(bkrs $mids> 0+1, "blue", "black" ) ) )

This has the side effect of first plotting a "histogram" with bars that have default fill but then gathers the values in an object bkrs that is used to assign colors based on midpoints. Following your lead, I used the default values for mean and SD, so filling them in is left as an an exercise for the poster.


Is it possible to do that in R?
Thanks
