Multiple vertical boxplots in one frame
For this, the individual data for which a boxplot representation is required is based on the function. By default, the orientation of the boxplots will be vertical hence nothing extra needs to be done here.
Example 1:
R
set.seed (20000) data <- data.frame ( A = rpois (900, 3), B = rnorm (900), C = runif (900) ) # Applying boxplot function boxplot (data) |
Output:
Example 2:
R
# Multiple boxplot using dataset # ToothGrowth dataset boxplot ( len~dose, data=ToothGrowth, main= "Different boxplots for per day growth" , xlab= "Tooth length" , ylab= " numeric Dose in milligrams/day" , col= "blue" , border= "black" ) |
Output:
Plot multiple boxplots in one graph in R
In this article, we will learn how to plot multiple boxplot in one graph in R Programming Language. This can be accomplished by using boxplot() function, and we can also pass in a list, data frame or multiple vectors to it. For this purpose, we need to put name of data into boxplot() function as input.
Syntax: boxplot(x, data, notch, varwidth, names, main)
Parameters:
- x: This parameter sets as a vector or a formula.
- data: This parameter sets the data frame.
- notch: This parameter is the label for horizontal axis.
- varwidth: This parameter is a logical value. Set as true to draw width of the box proportionate to the sample size.
- main: This parameter is the title of the chart.
- names: This parameter are the group labels that will be showed under each boxplot.
