[R] hist - modify maximum frequency (vertical axis)

[Daniel Malter]

Hi,

type ?hist in the R prompt and look for the ylim argument.

Example:

x=rep(1:10,1:10)
hist(x,ylim=c(0,20))

Manipulate the ylim values as needed.

Cheers,
Daniel

Betreff: [R] hist - modify maximum frequency (vertical axis)

Hello,

Is there a way to easily specify the maximum value to draw a histogram with
the "hist" function? I have 6 histograms, but each of them is drawn with a
different "frequency" range (scaling them to the best visible way), however
I need all the histograms to be scaled so that the maximum frequency is a
specific number (say 300, is the maximum value of the vertical axis). This
value is the maximum value shown overall in all the histograms.

Is that possible?

Thanks,

Omar
