Hello R folks,
I am encountering a problem with the following scatterplot function from the
car package:
> scatterplot(y~x|z)
where y and x are continuous (interval) random variables and z is a
categorical variable. When z is a categorical variable coded 1 or 2, I
(appropriately) get a scatterplot of y by x, coded by z. Similarly, when z
is a categorical variable coded 1, 2, or 3, there is again, no problem.
However, when z is a categorical variable coded 0 or 1, the scatterplot
> scatterplot(y~x|z)
is exactly identical to the one generated by
> scatterplot(y~x)
It is not possible that this is due to the fact that there is no difference
between the categories. It is as if R doesn't "see" that I want it coded by
z. But this only happens when one of the categories of z is coded "0" (i.e.
zero). Any ideas why this is so, or how I can fix this without recoding my
variable?
Thank you!
Anthony
