Hello Richard,
Your answer is a great help to my problem.
The boxplot of 13 colors is very beautiful :)
By the way, I have three subsequent questions of your code
1. the meaning of pch=rep("|",13)
I read the R manual but could not interpret the part.
"pch" means the point type in plot, but here not sure.
2. how to write names under each box
In boxplot, "names" can explain each box,
but here "names" does not work.
3. how to make staple from dash to solid line
Thanks again
Elaine
