Hi,

I am working on categorical data with column as disease name(categaory).

My input data is
  [1] Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (childhood)
  [2] Adiponectin levels
  [3] Adiponectin levels
  [4] Adiponectin levels
  [5] Adiponectin levels
  [6] Adiponectin levels
  [7] Adiposity
  [8] Adiposity
  [9] Adiposity
[10] Adiposity
[11] Age-related macular degeneration
[12] Age-related macular degeneration
[13] Aging (time to death)
[14] Aging (time to event)
[15] Aging (time to event)
[16] Aging (time to event)
[17] Aging (time to event)
[18] AIDS
[19] AIDS
[20] AIDS
.....


when i use table command, i get


[,1]
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (childhood)                             1
Adiponectin levels
5
Adiposity
4
Age-related macular degeneration
2
Aging (time to death)
1
......

But i need to sort this table by frequency and need to plot a histogram with
lable first column (e.g. Adiposity , Age-related macular degeneration  as
bar name). How can i do it?

Hi Manesh,
The freq function (prettyR) returns a vector (or a list of vectors if more than one variable is passed) with the same information as the table function. However, freq orders the table in descending frequency by default.
