This would not draw a histogram.

Re: [R] draw categorical histogram
Hi Phoebe,
Try
x - c(12, 33, 56, 67, 15, 66)
names(x) - c('Richard','Minnie','Albert','Helen','Joe','Kingston')
barplot(x, las = 1, space = 0)

Re: [R] draw categorical histogram
Phoebe,
In addition to the barplot method below, you really can use plot() to
draw what it sounds like you are looking for IF you have a categorical
variable. To illustrate, try running the following code:
x=sample(c(Richard, Minnie, Albert, Helen, Joe, Kingston),
50, replace=T)
x=as.factor(x)
plot(x)
See also ?plot.factor
