Whoops, that should be

 densityplot(~y|g, data=dat, plot.points=FALSE, layout=c(1,4))

You could try density plots:
If dat is your dataframe, y is your numerical vector and
g is your factor,

library(lattice)
trellis.device(height=9, width=7)
densityplot(~g|y, data=dat, plot.points=FALSE, layout=c(1,4))

See ?densityplot, ?panel.densityplot

Thanks, however the group sizes are really big (each a,b,c.. category has
60,000 observations). Its hard to see whats going on withe the jittered
stripchart, i just get big black blobs.

Any other suggestions?

They're more informative than boxplots and much less subject to
misinterpretation. One warning, I'm not fond of the default pch=0.

What ways are there to plot categorical vs numerical data in R.


I have two columns: one with categorical data in 5 categories a,b,c,d,e,
and
a numerical column with integers between 1 and 100.

I have used a boxplot with a,b,c,d,e on the x-axis and an increasing
numerical scale on the y-axis. This look fine but im looking for other
ways
to present the data.


What other ways can i do this???
