lefthist draws a histogram up the y-axis

Description

lefthist translates a histogram from along the x-axis to flow along the y-axis - it transposes a histogram.

Usage

lefthist(
  x,
  bins = 25,
  mult = 1.025,
  col = 2,
  lwd = 1,
  width = 0.9,
  border = 1,
  xinc = 1,
  yinc = NA,
  title = "",
  xlabel = "Frequency",
  ylabel = "",
  cex = 1,
  textout = FALSE,
  hline = NA
)

Arguments

x	a vector of the data to be plotted
bins	the breaks from the histogram, can be a single number of a sequence of values; defaults to 25
mult	the multiplier for the maximum count in the histogram. Becomes the upper limit of teh x-axis.
col	the colour for the histogram polygons; default = 2
lwd	the line width for each polygon; default = 1
width	the width of each bar in teh histogram; default = 0.9
border	the colour for the border line; default = 1 = black
xinc	the step size for the x-axis (counts) labels; default= NA, which means the increment will equal the bin width.
yinc	the step size for the y-axis (breaks) labels; default= 1.
title	the title for the left-histogram; defaults to ""
xlabel	the xlab; defaults to ""
ylabel	the ylab; defaults to "Frequency"
cex	the size of text in teh plot. defaults = 1.0
textout	prints input data range to console; default = FALSE
hline	if this has a value a horizontal line will be plotted; default = NA

Value

the output from hist but done so invisibly.

Examples

dat <- rnorm(1000,mean=5,sd=1)
dev.new(width=6,height=4,noRStudioGD = TRUE)
par(mai=c(0.45,0.45,0.05,0.05))
lefthist(dat)
lefthist(dat,textout=TRUE,width=0.8,border=3)
