gvisHistogram: Google Histogram Chart with R \Sexpr{googleChartName <-...

In googleVis: R Interface to Google Charts

Google Histogram Chart with R \Sexpr{googleChartName <- "histogram"} \Sexpr{gvisChartName <- "gvisHistogram"}

Description

The gvisHistogram function reads a data.frame and creates text output referring to the Google Visualisation API, which can be included into a web page, or as a stand-alone page. The actual chart is rendered by the web browser using SVG or VML.

Usage

gvisHistogram(data, options = list(), chartid)

Arguments

data	a data.frame to be displayed as a histogram. Each column will be displayed as a histogram.
options	list of configuration options, see \Sexpr[results=rd]{gsub("CHARTNAME", googleChartName, readLines(file.path(".", "inst", "mansections", "GoogleChartToolsURLConfigOptions.txt")))} \Sexpr[results=rd]{paste(readLines(file.path(".", "inst", "mansections", "gvisOptions.txt")))}
chartid	character. If missing (default) a random chart id will be generated based on chart type and tempfile.

Value

\Sexpr[results=rd]{paste(gvisChartName)}

returns list of class \Sexpr[results=rd]{paste(readLines(file.path(".", "inst", "mansections", "gvisOutputStructure.txt")))}
