[R] ordered boxplots

[Chuck Cleland]

?reorder.factor shows the follwing example:

bymedian <- with(InsectSprays, reorder(spray, count, median))

boxplot(count ~ bymedian, data = InsectSprays,
         xlab = "Type of spray", ylab = "Insect count",
         main = "InsectSprays data", varwidth = TRUE,
         col = "lightgray")
