Full_Name: Mark Wall Version: 1.6.0 OS: linux Submission from: (NULL) (63.251.119.254) I want to plot a histogram of a *subset* of some data:
t = c(0:9) hist(t,right=FALSE,breaks=10,xlim=c(0,5),xaxs="i")
This means I should plot a histogram from 0 to 5 with breaks at 1,2,3,4. This should produce exactly 5 bars of frequency=1. Instead I get 5 and 1/4 bars. I do not want the 4% margins on the x axis that xaxs="r" provides.

This is still a problem. xlim applies to the graph of the histogram, not the histogram itself. You need to subset your before plotting. Try: hist(t[0<=t & t<=5], right=FALSE,breaks=10,xlim=c(0,5),xaxs="i")
