Not quite -- he wanted the frequencies not the counts. So something like this (using the adj argument to center the frequencies above each bar:
bp <-barplot(Number.of.Death, names.arg=Cause.of.Death, main="Bar Graph for Death Data", ylab="Number of Deaths", xlab="Cause of Death", ylim = c(0,500) ) text(bp, y = Number.of.Death + 30, adj = .5, lab = round(Number.of.Death/sum(Number.of.Death),2)) Cheers, Bert "The trouble with having an open mind is that people keep coming along and sticking things into it." -- Opus (aka Berkeley Breathed in his "Bloom County" comic strip ) On Tue, Sep 11, 2018 at 11:02 AM AbouEl-Makarim Aboueissa <abouelmakarim1...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Dear All: > > > I do need your help on how to add frequency to bar plot on the top of each > bar. > > > here is the R code. > > > *Number.of.Death <- c(432, 217,93, 34, 224) ##### Number of Death* > > *Cause.of.Death <- c("Heart disease", "Cancer", "Stroke", "Accidents", > "Other") * > > *barplot(Number.of.Death, names.arg=Cause.of.Death, main="Bar Grapg for > Death Data", ylab="Number of Death", xlab="Cause of Death") * > > > > Thank you very much for your help in advance. > > > with many thanks > abou > ______________________ > > > *AbouEl-Makarim Aboueissa, PhD* > > *Professor of Statistics* > *Graduate Coordinator* > > *Department of Mathematics and Statistics* > *University of Southern Maine* > > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] > > ______________________________________________ > R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see > 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. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see 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.
