I'm having issues when trying to do a filled State plot using the maps() package. It seems that the color values aren't being plotted correctly, and I'm not sure why...
I've started debugging it, but I'm stuck. I've attached the code that I've got so far. The for loop plots states 1:i. What I'm noticing is that the colors are correct until after Michigan gets plotted (i=24). Then, the colors change each time the for loop is executed. I'm guessing it has something to do with Michigan having multiple regions, but I have no idea what to do from here. Help! (and thanks for taking the time to read this/help me out) state = c("Alabama","Alaska","Arizona","Arkansas", "California","Colorado","Connecticut","Delaware", "District Of Columbia","Florida","Georgia", "Hawaii","Idaho","Illinois","Indiana", "Iowa","Kansas","Kentucky","Louisiana", "Maine","Maryland","Massachusetts", "Michigan","Minnesota","Mississippi","Missouri", "Montana","Nebraska","Nevada","New Hampshire", "New Jersey","New Mexico","New York","North Carolina", "North Dakota","Ohio","Oklahoma","Oregon", "Pennsylvania","Rhode Island","South Carolina","South Dakota", "Tennessee","Texas","Utah","Vermont", "Virginia","Washington","West Virginia","Wisconsin","Wyoming") dState = data.frame( col=rbinom(51,size=2,prob=.6)+1, state=state ) for( i in 1:51 ){ dTemp = dState[1:i,] map("state", regions = dTemp$state, # boundary = TRUE, # lty = 1, lwd =1, col= dTemp$col, fill=T) readline( paste( "Current i is", i ) ) } [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
