Hello,

I have a sample file:

chr22   100     150     125     21      0.145   +
chr22   200     300     212     13      0.05    +
chr22   345     365     351     12      0.09    +
chr22   500     750     510     15      0.10    +
chr22   500     750     642     9       0.02    +
chr22   800     900     850     10      0.05    +


where I need to generate a histogram from the data in column 6 (i.e. 0.145, 0.05, etc.). To make it easier to read, I would plot the data as 1-0.05=0.95
for all of the data in column 6.

That makes no sense to me, unless you want to pre-multiply all values by 0.95.


What I would like to know is how to generate a histogram with the data from one file? Also, would I be able to generate one histogram from multiple
files as well (with the same format)?

?hist
?histogram (# lattice

There are a ton of worked examples in the Archives. Learn to search. Reasonable search terms once you get to Barons site with RSiteSearch are (after setting the web interface to get r-help postings): "grouped histogram"


For example, I have multiple files in the same format as the sample file above, and I would like to make one histogram for all column six data in all
files.

Also there are a ton of worked examples in the archive dealing with accessing multiple files.


Thank you,
