Re: [R] R plot like candlestick

Hi Denis,
there is no if, only how in R ;)

how about this:

rmail2-read.table(textConnection(item, min, int_1, int_2, max
a, 2.5, 3, 4, 5.5
b, 2, 3.5, 4, 4.5
c, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5),header=T,sep=,)
with(rmail2,symbols(item, (int_1+ int_2)/2, boxplots=cbind(.25,
int_2-int_1,
int_1-min,max-int_2,0),inches=F,ylim=range(rmail2[,-1]),xaxt=n,ylab=))
axis(1,seq_along(rmail2$item),labels=rmail2$item)

 Hi all,
 I'm new on this list so I greet all.
 My question is: does exist in R a plot similar to candlestick plot but
 not based on xts (time series)? I have to plot a range of 4 value: for
 every item I have min value, max value and 2 intermediate values. I
 would like plot this like a candlestick, i.e. with a box between 2
 intermediate values and 1 segment between box and min value and a
 segment between box and max value. Candlestick plot is provided by
 quantmod package, but it is very specific for financial purpose and it
 uses time series for x axis. I need a simpler method for plotting my
 data that are stored in a table like this:
 
 item, min, int_1, int_2, max
 a, 2.5, 3, 4, 5.5
 b, 2, 3.5, 4, 4.5
 c, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5
 .
 
 Does anyone know if there is an R-plot for this purpose?
 Thank you very much,
 
 D.

Wonderful! Thank you Eik!
I thought there was a specific package or plot to get my purpose, but
your idea solves perfectly my problem.
Maybe I could try to write a simple R function using your suggest,
just to make fast my work. If I can get a result, I'll announce it in
this list.
Thank you very much.

Denis

I have not had a change to look at the code but this appears to use ggplot2 to 
do something like what you want.  It may be of some use 
http://www.perdomocore.com/2012/using-ggplot-to-make-candlestick-charts-alpha/ 
.  The google search terms, ggplot2 candlestick, showed this and a couple of 
other possibly useful examples.
