More than likely, you want to use barplot() and not hist(): Try: barplot(1:5, names.arg = 1:5) See ?barplot for more information. HTH, Marc Schwartz P.S. To R Core: It probably makes sense to add barplot to the See Also section of ?hist, since hist is listed in the See Also for ?barplot. ______________________________________________ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
