Hmm not sure if this is what you want, but maybe subset the data: hist(data[data > -1]) m. > > h <- hist(data, plot=FALSE) > mh <- 5 > hh <- list(h$breaks[0:(mh+1)], > h$counts[0:mh],h$intensities[0:mh],h$density[0:mh],h$mids[0:mh],h$xname,h$equidist) > names(hh) <- names(h) > plot(hh) > > > Antje > > ______________________________________________ > 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. > -- Marianne Promberger Graduate student in Psychology http://www.psych.upenn.edu/~mpromber ______________________________________________ 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.
