Greetings,
I have a set of bivariate data: one variable (vegetation type) which is
categorical, and one (computed annual insolation) which is continuous.
Plotting veg_type ~ insolation produces a nice overview of the patterns that
I can see in the source data. However, due to the large number

You might prefer boxplot(insolation~veg_type) as a graphic. That will
give you quantiles. To get the actual numeric values you could
for (i in levels(veg_type)) {
print(i)
quantile(insolation[veg_type==i])
}
see ?quantile for more help.
