How to visualize this df

Hi

you still should post a snippet of your data to help others better understand.

It should be something like
p<- ggplot(dat, aes(x=Protocol, y=NRuns, fill=Speed))
p+geom_bar(stat="identity")

But as you have 132 levels of protocol unless you have big big monitor you will have problems to display all protocols properly.

You could try to use points but it probably does not help much.

You could try similar approach as here
http://www.phaget4.org/R/image_matrix.html

or you could try to tweek your table to fit image function.

Cheers
Petr

 Hi Rainer,

Please keep this on the mailing list for info.

Thanks for your reply. I want to show NRuns for each Protocol in my df
and color it by Speed. I think it's possible by a bar chart but I am
confused how to subset my df for using Bar chart in ggplot

Sorry - haven't used ggplot in ages.

Can't help you with that.

Hi all,
I have a question about how to visualize my df! here is my df I need to

visualize:

    'data.frame':   455 obs. of 128 variables:
    $Protocol      :Factor w/132 levels "_unknown","PD FS SAG","T1 SAG

FS","T2 FS OR",...

    $NRuns         : int   45 45 156 75 89 69 ......
    $Speed         :Factor w/4 levels "Slow","Fast","VeryFast","VerySlow"
NRuns is actually number of times that the customer used the protocol
and speed is how did the costumer run the Protocol. Each Protocol can
have different NRuns. Do you know what's the best way to visualize
this df?

That depends what you want to show. And that determines the best
visualization.

Also: what do you want to use it for: an interactive presentation may
call for different visualizations than a printed report.

Cheers,

Rainer

Thanks for any help!
