Aligning barplot

Hmmm.... This worked this time. And I didn't use the transform t.
Yeah. There is something pathological that happens when you do this: tblA <- table(BagA) tblA[8] <- 0 > tmp <-c(tmp,0) > is.vector(tmp) [1] TRUE But if you instead use tmp[8] <- 0 then > is.vector(tmp) [1] FALSE I haven't quite figured out exactly what it is, but when it fails the is.vector test inside barplot you get an error.
BagA <- c(-1000,10,10,10,10,10,10,
10,20,20,20,20,20,20,30,
30,40,40,50,60)
BagB <- c(10,20,30,30,40,40,50,50,
50,50,50,50,60,60,60,60,
60,60,60,1000)
tblA <- table(BagA)
tblA <- c(tblA,0)
names(tblA) <- c(names(table(BagA)),"1000")
tblB <- table(BagB)
tblB <- c(0,tblB)
names(tblB) <- c("-1000",names(table(BagB)))
layout(c(2,1))
barplot(tblB, main="Bag B")
barplot(tblA, main="Bag A")
D.

All, Consider:
BagA <- c(-1000,10,10,10,10,10,10,
10,20,20,20,20,20,20,30,
30,40,40,50,60)
BagB <- c(10,20,30,30,40,40,50,50,
50,50,50,50,60,60,60,60,
60,60,60,1000)
layout(c(2,1))
barplot(table(BagB))
barplot(table(BagA))
At this point, I'd like to arrange the plots so that the 10-bars are
aligned, the 20-bars are aligned, etc. So, I started thinking, how
do I
add an entry to a table? I tried:
tmp <- table(BagA)
tmp[8] <- 0
names(tmp)[8] <- "1000"
barplot(tmp)
But I got this error:
Try using t(tmp) when plotting. When you started mucking with that table-object, it got converted (effectively) to a one row matrix (even though it retained it "table"-class attribute) and you need to make it a one column matrix to get the desired results with barplot().
tmpB <- table(BagB) tmpB <- c(0, tmpB) names(tmpB) <- c(-1000, names(table(BagB)) )
barplot( t(tmpB) ) barplot( t(tmp) )
