[R] Plotting 27 line plots in one page
Dear group,
I am a novice programmer in R. I have a list that
has a length of 27 elements. Each element is derived
from table function.
lls - table(drres)
legnth(lls)
27
I want to plot all these elements in 9x3 plot (9 rows
and 3 columns)
par(9,3)
mypltfunc - function(mydata){
+ for (i in 1:27){
+ plot(unlist(mydata[i]))
+ }
+ }
mypltfunc(lls)
In the graphics window, all 27 figures are drawn in
fraction of sec, one by one and I get to see the last
graph. It is not drawing into this 9X3 grid.
Could any one help me please.
Thanks
sri

I want to plot all these elements in 9x3 plot (9 rows and 3 columns) par(9,3) You need to specify what par you want - see ?par for details. In this case, either par(mfrow=c(9,3)) or par(mfcol=c(9, 3)) will do what you want.

Re: [R] Plotting 27 line plots in one page
hi sarah, thanks for your mail. # par(mfrow=c(9,3)) mypltfunc(lls) Error in plot.new() : figure margins too large par(mfcol=c(9, 3)) mypltfunc(lls) Error in plot.new() : figure margins too large ## unfortunately I had this problem before. Thats the reason, I went on using more simply, par(9,3). I tried the following too, although, truely I did not understand the much after doing ?par: mar = c(1,1,1,1) oma = c(1,1,1,1) par(mar,oma) [[1]] NULL [[2]] NULL mypltfunc(lls) By doing this the problem turned out that it printed all 27 figures, one after other in fraction of second, and I see the last figure. given my background (molecular biology) sometimes it is very very difficult to understand the documentation due to terminology problem. thanks sri --- Sarah Goslee [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I want to plot all these elements in 9x3 plot (9 rows and 3 columns) par(9,3) You need to specify what par you want - see ?par for details.

Re: [R] Plotting 27 line plots in one page
Try
par( mfrow=c(9,3) )
for(i in 1:27) plot( lls[[i] )
but I think it might be a little crowded to put 9 rows in a page.
Also check out the lattice package which is bit more complicated to
learn but gives prettier output.

Re: [R] Plotting 27 line plots in one page
This works : # simulate some data mylist - list(NULL) for(i in 1:27) mylist[[i]] - rnorm( rpois( 1, lambda=20 ) ) # execute par( mfrow=c(9,3) ) par(mar = c(1,1,1,1), oma = c(1,1,1,1)) for(i in 1:27) plot( mylist[[i]] ) Also if you just want to plot the distribution values etc, then you can also try different possibilities such as boxplot( mylist ) Regards, Adai On Thu, 2006-02-09 at 14:05 -0800, Srinivas Iyyer wrote: hi sarah, thanks for your mail. # par(mfrow=c(9,3)) mypltfunc(lls) Error in plot.new() : figure margins too large par(mfcol=c(9, 3)) mypltfunc(lls) Error in plot.new() : figure margins too large ## unfortunately I had this problem before.
