Hi, I am trying to create a Cumulative Frequency graph and I am using the following example: http://www.r-tutor.com/elementary-statistics/quantitative-data/cumulative-frequency-graph When I plot this data, how do I put in "real values" on the x-axis, rather than the values that are used for the breaks
Hi Shane, The values in the plot you use as an example are "real" in the sense that they are equal to the time values. If you want different intervals, then it makes sense to add a separate axis. For example: data(faithful) duration = faithful$eruptions breaks = seq(1.5, 5.5, by=0.5) duration.cut = cut(duration, breaks, right=FALSE) duration.freq = table(duration.cut) cumfreq0 = c(0, cumsum(duration.freq)) plot(breaks,cumfreq0, main="Old Faithful Eruptions", xlab="Duration minutes", ylab="Cumulative eruptions",xaxt="n",type="b") axis(1,at=2:5) gives more or less the plot illustrated.
