[R] Including percentage values inside columns of a histogram

I may well misunderstand, but proffered solutions seem more complicated
than necessary.
Note that the return of hist() can be saved as a list of class "histogram"
and then plotted with plot.histogram(), which already has a "labels"
argument that seems to be what you want. A simple example is"
dat <- runif(50, 0, 10)
myhist <- hist(dat, freq = TRUE, breaks ="Sturges")
plot(myhist, col = "darkgray",
labels = as.character(round(myhist$density*100,1) ),
ylim = c(0, 1.1*max(myhist$counts)))
## note that this is plot.histogram because myhist has class "histogram"
Note that I expanded the y axis a bit to be sure to include the labels. You
can, of course, plot your separate years as Rui has indicated or via e.g.
?layout.
Apologies if I have misunderstood. Just ignore this in that case.
Otherwise, I leave it to you to fill in details.
