Dear Researchers,
sorry for this simple question. I have a point plot with mean
values and i
wish to plot line with Standard Deviation as "Whiskers". I calculate
the
mean+sd and mean-sd, but i can not figure out the way to add the line.
mydata <-
data
.frame
(mean
=
c
(0.42,0.41,0.41,0.43,0.45,0.43,0.43,0.42,0.44,0.45,0.45,0.45,0.46,0.43,0.42,0.37,0.44,0.46,0.46,0.39,0.40
),
sdUP
=
c
(0.58,0.56,0.55,0.57,0.61,0.55,0.57,0.59,0.61,0.60,0.57,0.60,0.62,0.57,0.59,0.56,0.57,0.61,0.61,0.56,0.54
),
sdDOWN
=
c
(0.26,0.26,0.28,0.29,0.30,0.30,0.29,0.26,0.28,0.31,0.34,0.30,0.31,0.30,0.25,0.19,0.31,0.31,0.31,0.22,0.25
))
plot(mydata$mean,
type="o",
ylab="mean",
xlab="class")
thanks in advance and sorry for any disturb
If you tried lines() usin either sdUP or sdDOWN you saw nothing
because the ylim was set by default using ony hte information in the
mean vector.
Try:
> plot(mydata$mean,
+ type="o",
+ ylab="mean",
+ xlab="class", ylim=range(c(mydata$sdUP, mydata$sdDOWN)))
> lines(mydata$sdDOWN, col="blue", lty=3)
> lines(mydata$sdUP, col="blue", lty=3)
