Hello,

Also gives an error in R 2.15.2 on Windows 7. I'd change "when the dimnames of the table are not integers " to not numeric as that's what the code for plot.table tests. And it seems to come from seq.int, since with table value of 2, seq.int produces a vector of length 2 but the table length is 1:

> seq.int(tbl.char1)
[1] 1 2
> seq_along(tbl.char1)
[1] 1


So the plot command will have 2 values for the x axis but just one for the y axis.
seq_along seems to solve the matter.

Hope this helps,

Hi all,

there appears to be something strange with the plotting of tables of 1
dimension; if I attempt to make a plot of a table of characters with only
1 value I get an error (Error in xy.coords(x, y, xlabel, ylabel, log) :
   'x' and 'y' lengths differ). With more than one value I don't get
errors, neither with integers (even if only 1 value):

tbl.char1 <- table(c('a','a'))
tbl.char2 <- table(c('a','a','b'))
tbl.int1 <- table(c(1,1))

# error:
plot(tbl.char1)

# no errors:
plot(tbl.char2)
plot(tbl.int1)

Confirmed in current R-devel. It seems to arise from plot.table's use
of seq.int(x) when the dimnames of the table are not integers. I'm not
sure if this shouldn't be seq_along(x) instead, but I'm not sure I
totally follow the internal logic, so perhaps someone can offer second
opinion?

Michael
