[R] Bar Charts

[Jim Lemon]

Hi Jeff,
Let's say you have the following data:

set.seed(12345)
CONTBR_RESULT<-sample(20:200,30)

If you don't mind ordering the results, you can do this:

barplot(rev(sort(CONTBR_RESULT))[1:15],...)

If you want the values in the original order:

barplot(CONTBR_RESULT[order(CONTBR_RESULT) > 15],...)
