Hello,
my dataset is already aggregated: I have two categorical variables, say
"continent" and "country" and one non-negative metric variable "population".
Now I would like to produce a mosaic plot which uses "population" to
determine how large each area of the plot is.
In other words, I fail to find out
- how to use the mosaic function of the vcd package without using table,
- or I do not know how to convert my dataset into a table (as.table fails)
As an example, here a simple dataset:
Continent; Country; Population
Europe; France; 65
Europe; Germany; 80
Africa; Algeria; 32
....
Can you help me to get started?
You can create the tables by
xtabs(Population ~ Continent, data = mydata)
etc. which can then be visualized using mosaic() in the usual way.
hth,

Kind regards,
Karsten.
