Hi
With ggplot2 I can very easily create beautiful histograms but I would like to
put two histograms on the same plot. The histograms may be over-lapping.
When they are overlapping the bars are shown on top of each other (so that the
overall height is the sum of the two). Is there any way to get them to display
overlapping (with smaller value in front, larger value behind) so that the
overall height is equal to the height of the largest value
The following demonstrates the problem (there is probably a simple way to
generate the sequence in d1 but I don't know it and just threw this together
quickly)
d1<-c(1,2,2,3,3,3,4,4,4,4,5,5,5,5,5,6,6,6,6,7,7,7,8,8,9,6,7,7,8,8,8,9,9,9,9,10,10,10,10,10,11,11,11,11,12,12,12,13,13,14,15,15,16,16,16,17,17,17,17,18,18,18,18,18)
d2<-c(rep("a",25), rep("b",39))
dafr<-data.frame(d1,d2)
library(ggplot)
qplot(d1, data=dafr, fill=d2, geom='histogram', binwidth = 1)
Many thanks for any help
