bargraph.ci - CI and color question.
Hello,
Thanks for the responses. Yes, I did try to use ?bargraph.CI for the
colors. When I said bars, I meant the main bars on the graph not the
error bars. However, this "col=c("color", "color")" is what I was
needed and while it didn't find in the ?bargraph.ci help, I suspect
its a more fundamental R thing that I was unaware of. Regardless,
thank you for the example.
bargraph.CI(dose, len, group = supp, data =ToothGrowth,
+ col=c("gray","black"))
Regarding the confidence intervals. Yes, I am looking for the 95%
confidence interval of the mean. Using the ci.fun can I get +/- 1.96
SD?
bargraph.CI(x.factor = dose, response = len, data = ToothGrowth,
ci.fun= function(x) c(mean(x)-sd(x), mean(x) + sd(x)) )
I tried variations on this like,
ci.fun= function(x) c(mean(x)-(1.96*sd(x))), mean(x) + (1.96*sd(x))) )
but this didn't work. Maybe this approach above seems silly, but I
hope I am exhibiting that I do indeed what the 95% CI for the mean,
but that I am unsure how to have the error bars reflect this using the
ci.fun argument. Can I use this argument or is some pre-processing
necessary? If this information is located somewhere besides the
?bargraph.ci help I would greatly appreciate an indication of where it
is.
Thank you kindly,
Michael Just

Hello, When using bargraph.CI in package sciplot can the bars for each group be different colors? ?How do I select the color for each group?
With the option err.col
bargraph.CI(dose, len, group = supp, data =ToothGrowth,
err.col=c("gray","black"))
When I use this instead of the default (SD vs SE): bargraph.CI(x.factor = dose, response = len, data = ToothGrowth, ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?ci.fun= function(x) c(mean(x)-sd(x), mean(x) + sd(x)) ) Am I getting 95% CI bars?
No. You're plotting +/- 1 SD.
Thank you kindly, Michael Just
