barplot.acomp {compositions}R Documentation

Bar charts of amounts

Description

Compositions and amounts dispalyed as bar plots.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'acomp':
barplot(height,...,legend.text=TRUE,beside=FALSE,total=1,
plotMissings=TRUE,missingColor="red",missingPortion=0.01)
## S3 method for class 'rcomp':
barplot(height,...,legend.text=TRUE,beside=FALSE,total=1,
plotMissings=TRUE,missingColor="red",missingPortion=0.01)
## S3 method for class 'aplus':
barplot(height,...,legend.text=TRUE,beside=TRUE,total=NULL,
plotMissings=TRUE,missingColor="red",missingPortion=0.01)
## S3 method for class 'rplus':
barplot(height,...,legend.text=TRUE,beside=TRUE,total=NULL,
plotMissings=TRUE,missingColor="red",missingPortion=0.01)
          

Arguments

height an acomp, rcomp, aplus, or rplus object giving amounts to be displayed
... further graphical parameters as in barplot
legend.text same as legend.text in barplot
beside same as beside in barplot
total The total to be used in displaying the composition, typically 1, 100 or the number of parts. If NULL no normalisation takes place.
plotMissings logical: shall missings be annotate in the plot
missingColor color to draw missings
missingPortion The space portion to be reserved for missings

Details

These functions are essentially light-weighted wrappers for barplot, just adding an adequate default behavior for each of the scales. The missingplot functionality will work well with the default settings.

If plotMissings is true, there will be an additional portion introduced, which is not counted in the total. This might make the plots looking less nice, however they make clear to the viewer that it is by no means clear how the rest of the plot should be interpreted and that the missing value really casts some unsureness on the rest of the data.

Value

A numeric vector (or matrix, when beside = TRUE) giving the coordinates of all the bar midpoints drawn, as in barchart
