Re: [R] Hunting a histogram variant

Hmmno... The labels on a stem-and-leaf plots are the values. This is just the measurement number: Observations #2,5,6,9 from level 1 had a temperature between 89 and 90, making up the penultimate column of that histogram. I would conjecture that, like stem-and-leaf, this has fallen out of

Re: [R] Hunting a histogram variant

Hi, This looks very much like a waffle plot, which can be performed with color2D.matplot in the plotrix package. At the moment, the function fill.corner is used to produce the matrix, but this could be generalized to produce any shape of "waffle". The value display is already part of

Re: [R] Hunting a histogram variant

Two things to look at are ?monthplot which shows seasonal subseries plotted on an overall plot. The parallel to your example is small histograms plotted on an overall plot. That goes back (through the reference in the Blue Book (Becker, Chambers, and Wilks)) to Bill Cleveland and Irma Terpenning

[R] Hunting a histogram variant

I'm looking for a histogram variant in which data points are plotted as labelled rectangles 'piled up' to form a histogram. I've posted an example at https://www.dropbox.com/s/ozi8bhdn5kqaufm/labelled_histogram.png?dl=0 It seems to have a long pedigree, as I see it (as in this example) in
