plotBars: Bar plot of orientations (declination)

In skyscapeR: Data Analysis and Visualization for Skyscape Archaeology

Description

Bar plot of orientations (declination)

Usage

plotBars(
  val,
  unc,
  names,
  unit = "Declination",
  col = "blue",
  shade = TRUE,
  mark = TRUE,
  sort = FALSE,
  xrange,
  yrange,
  obj,
  show.obj.label = TRUE
)

Arguments

val	Array of declination or azimuth values.
unc	Single value or array of measurement uncertainty
names	(Optional) Array of names of measurements in val
unit	(Optional). Either 'Declination' or 'Azimuth'. Defaults to 'Declination'.
col	(Optional) Color to plot measurements in. Defaults to blue.
shade	(Optional) Boolean to control whether to shade a polygon of measurements. Defaults to TRUE
mark	(Optional) Boolean to control whether to mark the declination value. Defaults to TRUE
sort	(Optional) Boolean to control whether to sort the measurements by their declination value. Defaults to FALSE
xrange	(Optional) Array of limits for x-axis.
yrange	(Optional) Array of limits for y-axis.
obj	(Optional) A skyscapeR.object object created with sky.objects for displaying the declination values of celestial objects.
show.obj.label	(Optional) Boolean to control whether to label the celestial objects in the polar plot. Defaults to TRUE.

Examples

# Plot some declination data:
decs <- c(10, 12, -5, 4)
plotBars(decs, unc=5)

# To visualize this data against the common solar and lunar targets:
tt <- sky.objects(c('solar extremes','lunar extremes'), epoch=-2000, lty=c(2,3))
plotBars(decs, unc=5, obj=tt)
