[R] How to reduce the (whitespace) gap between boxplots

[Neha gupta]

Thank you so much.

When I modify this, like the following

xlim = c(.2,4.2),

The spaces between boxplots are reduced but the main box (the container)
remains the same which still takes space. Can I reduce the size of the main
box (which contains all the boxplots) to take less space.
