Re: [R] Error when producing multiple graphes
Could you provide us some working codo, so that we can reproduce the error and see what went wrong?

Re: [R] Error when producing multiple graphes
Sorry. My last message maybe was not very helpful. Please find here a more concise form of the code. It produces a dataframe of more or less the characteristics of the one that I use and yields the same error message: * x1-c(1,2,3,4,NA ,NA ,NA, 3, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4) x2-c(2,3,4,3,4,3,4,2,2,3,4,NA,NA,NA,NA,4,3) x3-c(NA,NA,NA,NA,NA,NA,NA,NA,NA,NA,NA,NA,NA,NA,NA,NA,NA) x4-c(1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,3,3,3,3,4,4,4,1,2) type3m-data.frame(x1,x2,x3,x4) barnamesm-c(1=One,2=Two, 3=Three, 4=Four) for(xn in names(type3m)) barplot(table(type3m[[xn]]), main = paste (Barplot of, xn), width=0.75,legend.text=barnamesm, xlim=c(0,4),ylim=c(0,400)) Thanks again!

Re: [R] Error when producing multiple graphes
I just solved the problem. The error happened because of the empty variables in the dataframe. In any case, thanks for caring. bartjoosen schrieb: Could you provide us some working codo, so that we can reproduce the error and see what went wrong?
