Hi Jim
Sorry to bother you but i don't seem to understand what you are saying. I have
the simulated data as follows:
Hypermarket <- matrix(rnorm(100, mean=50000, sd=5000))
Supermarket <- matrix(rnorm(400, mean=34000, sd=3000))
Minimarket <- matrix(rnorm(1000, mean=10000,sd=2000))
Cornershop <- matrix(rnorm(1500, mean=2500, sd=500))
Spazashop <- matrix(rnorm(2000, mean=1000, sd=250))
dat=data.frame(type=c(rep("Hypermarket",100), rep("Supermarket",400),
rep("Minimarket",1000),rep("Cornershop",1500), rep("Spazashop",2000)),
value=c(Hypermarket, Supermarket, Minimarket, Cornershop,Spazashop))
Now, i want to do multiple histograms and normal curves on the same plot as you
rightfully pointed out, but i cannot plot all of them even when i have done the
following i can only do one.
Hypermarket<-rnorm(100, mean=50000, sd=3000)
par(las=1)
hist(Hypermarket, breaks=seq(0, 60000, 500), freq=F)
x<- seq(0, 60000, 1000)
lines(x, dnorm(x, 50000, 3000))
As for the code below, i dicided to leave it as i does not allow me to do more
than three curves.
I would appreciate all the help.

Hi Kabeli,
I think you want to get multiple histograms and normal curves on the same plot.
You can do something like that if you get a table of frequencies for each of
your three sets of values using "cut" or "hist", combine these vectors of
frequencies into a matrix and pass this to barplot. Then draw your normal
curves using "curve" on top of the grouped bars.
