Reordering factors for plotting.
R plots data based on alphabetical order of groups on the X-axis. To change this order, or to reorder factors while working with linear models, use table_x_reorder
(which uses the base R functions to do the job).
#graph of mtcars
plot_scatterbox(mtcars,
cyl, #default order of cyl
disp)
#change the order of cyl
mtcars2 <- table_x_reorder(data = mtcars,
xcol = "cyl",
OrderX = c("6", "8", "4"))
#plot saved table
plot_scatterbox(mtcars2,
cyl, #new order of cyl
disp)
#run in one step
plot_scatterbox(table_x_reorder(mtcars,
"cyl",
c("6",
"8",
"4")), #reordered cyl
cyl,
disp)
