Scatter plot (xy-plot) of binned elements.

Source: R/plotting.R
plotBinScatter.Rd

Plot a scatter (xy-plot) of binned elements with binning information.

Usage

plotBinScatter(
  x,
  y,
  b,
  cols = getColsByBin(b),
  xlab = deparse(substitute(x, env = as.environment(-1))),
  ylab = deparse(substitute(y, env = as.environment(-1))),
  main = "",
  legend = "topright",
  legend.cex = 1,
  ...
)

Arguments

x

A numerical vector with x values.

y

A numerical vector with y values (the values used for binning).

b

A factor that groups elements of x,y into bins (typically the output of bin(y)).

cols

A color vector (will be computed based on b by default using getColsByBin(b)).

xlab

Label for x-axis.

ylab

Label for y-axis.

main

Main title.

legend

If not NULL, draw a legend with binning information (will be passed to legend(x=legend) to control legend position).

legend.cex

A scalar that controls the text size in the legend relative to the current par("cex") (see legend).

...

Further arguments passed to plot(x, y, ...).

Value

TRUE (invisibly).

x <- rnorm(100)
y <- rnorm(100)
b <- bin(y, "equalN", nElements = 10)
