Hi Leaf The word "even" can be interpreted in several ways but I will give it a shot. If you want to specify the breakpoints to represent the aggregation in your data you can use the argument breaks within histogram i.e.
x=c(runif(95,0,0.2),runif(5,.21,2)) hist(x, breaks=seq(0,2,.1), freq=F )#It will use breakpoints at 0,0.1,0.2,...2 or you can also suggest a pre-defined number of cells i.e. hist(x, breaks=7, freq=F ) You can also add a density line over the histogram using lines lines(density(x, bw=.1)) Alternativelly, you can use some more basic visualization like a stem-and-leaf plot stem(x) I hope this helps Francisco >From: "Leaf Sun" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> >Subject: [R] breaks in hist() >Date: Wed, 2 Nov 2005 10:48:45 -0700 > >Dear listers, > >A quick question about breaks in hist(). > >The histogram is highly screwed to the right, say, the range of the vector >is [0, 2], but 95% of the value is squeezed in the interval (0.01, 0.2).
