Adding x-axis values to a histogram

Dear useRs,

Is there a way one can add x-axis values to a histogram? Example:

z = rgamma(n=1000, shape = 8, scale = 1000)
hist(z, breaks = 30)

Currently I see 4 x-axis values: 5000, 10000, 15000, 20000. Can I add more
values or modify the ones currently showing? I tried ?hist, yet couldn't
work this out.

Thank you very much.

Try this:

hv <- hist(z, breaks = 30, xaxt='n')
axis(1, hv$breaks )

?axis

e.g.:

hist(rnorm(100))
axis(1, -3:2+0.5, rep('',6), tck=-0.01)
