Hi: Try this:
First put your data into a data frame (it's not necessary, but it's easier) ol <- data.frame(grp = grp, size = size) boxplot(size ~ grp, data = ol, style = 'att', medpch = "o", ylab = "Prostate Volume (cm3)") mns <- with(ol, tapply(size, grp, mean)) points(1:5, mns, pch = '+') HTH, Dennis On Wed, Jan 6, 2010 at 1:36 PM, oscar linares <wins...@gmail.com> wrote: > Dear Rexperts, > > I am trying to add a '+' identifying the mean in a boxplot using the > following > sizelist <- split(size, grp) > centers <- boxplot(sizelist, style.bxp = "att", medpch = "o", > ylab = "Prostate Volume (cm3)") > points(centers, unlist(lapply(sizelist, mean)), pch = "+") > But, I get error > Error in xy.coords(x, y) : 'x' and 'y' lengths differ > which I do not understand. > The data follows > grp size > AE 9.132 > AE 10.07 > AE 20.077 > AE 14.691 > AE 23.698 > E1 10.356 > E1 6.313 > E1 21.708 > E1 12.651 > E1 15.464 > E2 37.2 > E2 12.639 > E2 16.791 > E2 36.996 > E2 22.808 > CC 1.975 > CC 3.125 > CC 4.433 > CC 6.154 > CC 4.175 > NC 9.301 > NC 13.531 > NC 12.84 > NC 14.336 > NC 25.102 > > Please help. > > -- > Oscar > Oscar A.
