[R] X-axis labels in histograms drawn by the truehist function
Hi, I had sent this email last week, but received no reply. So, I am resending it - please excuse me for the redundant email. I have a simple problem that I would appreciate getting some tips. I am using the truehist function within an apply call to plot multiple histograms. I can't figure out how to get truehist to use the column names of the matrix as the labels for the x-axis of the histograms. Here is a simple example: library(MASS) # this contains the truehist function X - matrix(runif(4000),ncol=4) colnames(X) - c(X1,X2,X3,X4) par(mfrow=c(2,2)) apply(X, 2, function(x)truehist(x)) In this example, I would like the x-labels of the histograms to be X1, X2, etc. Any help is appreciated.

Try this: f - function(x,xlab) truehist(x, xlab = xlab) mapply(f, as.data.frame(X), colnames(X)) On 9/29/06, Ravi Varadhan [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I have a simple problem that I would appreciate getting some tips.
