I use this code to make a ggplot
boxplot showing Score
variance for each System
, ordered by median Score
.
ggplot(
muhData,
aes(
x=reorder(System, -Score, FUN=median),
y=Score
)
) + geom_boxplot()
I want to do the same for 10 other variables. I tried just putting the column names in an array ( arrayOfColumnNames <- c(Score, Size, Temperature)
), but that didn't work.
I'm looking for a bunch of separate boxplots, not a lot of boxplots on one ggplot.
What do I do?
I am not sure if I correctly understood what you want but take a look at this:
library(ggplot2)
#toy data
system<-sample(c("a","b","c"),100, replace=TRUE)
var1<-rnorm(100)
var2<-rnorm(100)
var3<-rnorm(100)
data<-data.frame(system,var1,var2,var3)
plot_list<-list()
for (i in 1:3){
#save plots as single objects
assign(paste0("plot",i),ggplot()+geom_boxplot(aes(x=reorder(system,get(names(data)[i+1])),y=get(names(data)[i+1]))))
#or all together in a list
plot_list[[i]]<-ggplot()+geom_boxplot(aes(x=reorder(system,get(names(data)[i+1]),median),y=get(names(data)[i+1])))
}
The solution is based on the get
funtion. It takes a character string as input and looks if there is a variable with the same name. If there is, it gives this variable.
