In bryancquach/omixjutsu: Utilities for omics analysis tasks

Histogram and jittered boxplots partitioned by categories

Description

Creates a histogram and jittered boxplot with color-coded, separate distributions for each value of a user-specified categorical variable.

Usage

hist_boxplot2(
  data,
  binsize = diff(range(data[, 1], na.rm = T))/25,
  colors = NULL,
  hist_alpha = 0.75,
  box_fill = "gray50",
  box_alpha = 0.5,
  box_lwd = 1,
  jitter_alpha = 0.75,
  jitter_size = 1.75,
  x_title = "",
  y_title = ""
)

Arguments

data	A two-column data frame with numeric values for plotting in the first column and the categorical variable as the second column.
binsize	A numeric value for the histogram bin widths.
colors	A string vector. The histogram bar colors and jitter colors for each categorical variable value.
hist_alpha	A numeric value for the alpha level for histogram bars.
box_fill	A string. The fill color for the boxplot.
box_alpha	A numeric value for the alpha level for the boxplot.
box_lwd	A numeric value for the boxplot line width.
jitter_alpha	A numeric for the alpha level for jittered data points.
jitter_size	A numeric for the point size for jittered data points.
x_title	A string denoting the x-axis title. Only added to the boxplot.
y_title	A string denoting the y-axis title. Only added to the histogram.

Details

Creates two plots that can be organized as a single column two row multi-figure. The top row plot is multiple overlayed histograms from data partitioned by a variable. The bottom row plot is multiple horizontal boxplots with jittered data points overlayed. The x-axis of both plots are fixed to the same limits for comparability across plots.

Value

A list of two ggplot objects hist and boxplot.
