You could use something like this:
#Generate 26 simulated data points y=rnorm(26) x=1:26 your.labels=letters #Plot data plot(x, y, xlim=c(min(x), max(x)+.25), ylim=c(min(y), max(y)+.25)) #Label points text(x+.15, y+.15, your.labels) You could also use the textxy function in the calibrate package as show here: http://www.r-bloggers.com/r-tutorial-series-labeling-data-points-on-a-plot/. ________________________________ From: john55 <johannes...@gmail.com> To: r-help@r-project.org Sent: Saturday, November 24, 2012 11:04 AM Subject: [R] How to Label Cases in Scatterplots? Hi everyone, i´m trying to graphically display distributions with r and i´m working with makrodata from the WVS. the command i´m using is > plot (Makrodata$v11, Makrodata$v12, xlab="Democracy Score Economist", > ylab= share religious people") i´m having an additional variable that identifies respectively labels the cases with its country name. how can i implement that variable, so it identifies the various cases in the scatterplot and looks like the spss screenshot i posted below? <http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/file/n4650650/Unbenannt.gif> thanks in advance! -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/How-to-Label-Cases-in-Scatterplots-tp4650650.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ 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.
