Adding Error Bars To Graphs In R

|| is.character(x)) "" else as.character(substitute(y)), add=FALSE, lty=1, type='p', ylim=NULL, lwd=1, pch=16, Type=rep(1, length(y)), ...) Arguments x vector of numeric x-axis values (for vertical error bars) or a factor or character variable (for horizontal error bars, x representing the group labels) error bars line graphs y vector of y-axis values. yplus vector of y-axis values: the tops of the error bars on graphs in excel error bars. yminus vector of y-axis values: the bottoms of the error bars. cap the width of the little lines at the add error bars to plot in r tops and bottoms of the error bars in units of the width of the plot. Defaults to 0.015. main a main title for the plot, see also title. sub a sub title for the plot. xlab

optional x-axis labels if add=FALSE. ylab optional y-axis labels if add=FALSE. Defaults to blank for horizontal charts. add set to TRUE to add bars to an existing plot (available only for vertical error bars) lty type of line for error bars type type of point. Use type="b" to connect dots. ylim y-axis limits. Default is to use range of y, yminus, and yplus. For horizonal charts, ylim is really the x-axis range, excluding differences. error bars histogram lwd line width for line segments (not main line) pch character to use as the point. Type used for horizontal bars only. Is an integer vector with values 1 if corresponding values represent simple estimates, 2 if they represent differences. ... other parameters passed to all graphics functions. Details errbar adds vertical error bars to an existing plot or makes a new plot with error bars. It can also make a horizontal error bar plot that shows error bars for group differences as well as bars for groups. For the latter type of plot, the lower x-axis scale corresponds to group estimates and the upper scale corresponds to differences. The spacings of the two scales are identical but the scale for differences has its origin shifted so that zero may be included. If at least one of the confidence intervals includes zero, a vertical dotted reference line at zero is drawn. Author(s) Charles Geyer, University of Chicago. Modified by Frank Harrell, Vanderbilt University, to handle missing data, to add the parameters add and lty, and to implement horizontal charts with differences. Examples set.seed(1) x <- 1:10 y <- x + rnorm(10) delta <- runif(10) errbar( x, y, y + delta, y - delta ) # Show bootstrap nonparametric CLs for 3 group means and for # pairwise differences

The you will have a different length of the small bars on the right an the left side (the epsilon follows the x-values). You should better use the errbar function from the Hmisc package: d = data.frame( x = c(1:5) , y = c(1.1, 1.5, 2.9, 3.8, 5.2) , sd = c(0.2, 0.3, 0.2, 0.0, 0.4) ) ##install.packages("Hmisc", dependencies=T) library("Hmisc") # add error bars (without adjusting yrange) plot(d$x, d$y, type="n") with ( data = d , expr = errbar(x, y, y+sd, y-sd, add=T, pch=1, cap=.1) ) # new plot (adjusts Yrange automatically) with ( data = d , expr = errbar(x, y, y+sd, y-sd, add=F, pch=1, cap=.015, log="x") ) share|improve this answer answered Sep 6 '13 at 14:21 R_User 3,18484581 add a comment| up vote 19 down vote A solution with ggplot2 : qplot(x,y)+geom_errorbar(aes(x=x, ymin=y-sd, ymax=y+sd), width=0.25) share|improve this answer answered Feb 25 '13 at 9:06 juba 23.9k55981 add a comment| up vot
error bars Two within-subjects variables Note about normed means Helper functions Problem You want http://cookbook-r.com/Graphs/Plotting_means_and_error_bars_(ggplot2)/ to plot means and error bars for a dataset. Solution To make graphs with ggplot2, the data must be in a data frame, and in “long” (as opposed to wide) format. If your data needs to be restructured, see this page for more information. Sample data error bars The examples below will the ToothGrowth dataset. Note that dose is a numeric column here; in some situations it may be useful to convert it to a factor. tg <- ToothGrowth head(tg) #> len supp error bars to dose #> 1 4.2 VC 0.5 #> 2 11.5 VC 0.5 #> 3 7.3 VC 0.5 #> 4 5.8 VC 0.5 #> 5 6.4 VC 0.5 #> 6 10.0 VC 0.5 library(ggplot2) First, it is necessary to summarize the data. This can be done in a number of ways, as described on this page. In this case, we’ll use the summarySE() function defined on that page, and also at the bottom of this page. (The code for the summarySE function must be entered before it is called here). # summarySE provides the standard deviation, standard error of the mean, and a (default 95%) confidence interval tgc <- summarySE(tg, measurevar="len", groupvars=c("supp",
