Hello,

Sorry, I forgot the barplot.


dmelt <- melt(d, id.vars=c("Live", "Age"), measure.vars="Count")
wide <- dcast(Live ~ Age, data = dmelt)

col <- rainbow(4)
barplot(as.matrix(wide[, 2:5]), beside=T, col=col)
legend("topleft", wide[, 1], fill=col)


Hope this helps,

Hello,

Install package 'reshape2' and try the following.


#install.packages('reshape2')
library(reshape2)

d <- read.table(text="
Live    Age    Count
Parents    Age19    324
Another    Age19    37
OwnPlace    Age19    116
Group    Age19    58
Other    Age19    5
Parents    Age20    378
Another    Age20    47
OwnPlace    Age20    279
Group    Age20    60
Other    Age20    2
Parents    Age21    337
Another    Age21    40
OwnPlace    Age21    372
Group    Age21    49
Other    Age21    3
Parents    Age22    318
Another    Age22    38
OwnPlace    Age22    487
Group    Age22    25
Other    Age22    9
", header=TRUE, stringsAsFactors=FALSE)
d

dmelt <- melt(d, id.vars=c("Live", "Age"), measure.vars="Count")
dcast(Live ~ Age, data = dmelt)


Hope this helps,

Hi,

Entering data from a given file is the hardest part of learning R for me.
For example, I have this datafile from Moore's text:

Live    Age    Count
Parents    Age19    324
Another    Age19    37
OwnPlace    Age19    116
Group    Age19    58
Other    Age19    5
Parents    Age20    378
Another    Age20    47
OwnPlace    Age20    279
Group    Age20    60
Other    Age20    2
Parents    Age21    337
Another    Age21    40
OwnPlace    Age21    372
Group    Age21    49
Other    Age21    3
Parents    Age22    318
Another    Age22    38
OwnPlace    Age22    487
Group    Age22    25
Other    Age22    9

I can manually enter the numbers and create my table and barplot.

x <- matrix(c(324, 378, 337, 318, 37, 47, 40, 38, 116, 279, 372, 487, 58,
60, 49, 25, 5, 2, 3, 9), c(5,4),byrow=T)
rownames(x)=c("Parents","Another","OwnPlace","Group","Other")
colnames(x)=c("Age19","Age20","Age21","Age22")
x <- as.table(x)

barplot(x,beside=T)

But it would be nice to be able to read the data from the file,
arrange it
using R, then plot, if that is possible. Any suggestions?

Thanks

David
