In Bioconductor/geneplotter: Graphics related functions for Bioconductor

Stacked histogram

Description

Stacked histogram

Usage

histStack(x, breaks, breaksFun=paste, ylab="frequency", ...) 

Arguments

x	A list of numeric vectors.
breaks	Histogram breaks, as in hist
breaksFun	Function, can be used to control the formatting of the bin labels. See example.
ylab	Label for the Y-axis on the plot
...	Further arguments that get passed to barplot

Details

The function calls hist for each element of x and plots the frequencies as a stacked barplot using barplot with beside=FALSE.

Value

The function is called for its side effect, producing a barplot on the active graphics device. It returns the result of the call to barplot.

Examples

  x    <- list(rnorm(42), rnorm(42)+2)
  br   <- seq(-3, 5, length=13)
  cols <- c("#1D267B", "#ceffc0")
  histStack(x, breaks=br, col=cols)

  histStack(x, breaks=br, col=cols,
            breaksFun=function(z) paste(signif(z, 3)))
