[R] ggplot adding points

[ONKELINX, Thierry]

Dear Stephen,

You need the data in long format. Try melt()ing it first.

River.Mile <-c(202, 198, 190, 185, 179, 148, 119, 61)
TSS <- c(1:8)
DOC <- seq(2, by= 0.6, length.out=8)
z <- data.frame(River.Mile, TSS, DOC)
zMelt <- melt.data.frame(z, id.vars = "River.Mile")
library(ggplot2)
ggplot(zMelt, aes(x = River.Mile, y = value, colour = variable)) +
geom_point()

HTH,

Thierry

PS your example was not reproducible as you forgot library(lattice) in
your code.

To call in the statistician after the experiment is done may be no more
than asking him to perform a post-mortem examination: he may be able to
say what the experiment died of.

The combination of some data and an aching desire for an answer does not
ensure that a reasonable answer can be extracted from a given body of
data.

I would like to do the following in ggplot:
what am I missing?

River.Mile <-c(202, 198, 190, 185, 179, 148, 119, 61)
TSS <- c(1:8)
DOC <- seq(2, by= 0.6, length.out=8)
z <- data.frame(River.Mile, TSS, DOC)
xyplot(TSS+DOC~River.Mile, data=z, auto.key=TRUE)

thanks

Let's not spend our time and resources thinking about things that are
so little or so large that all they really do for us is puff us up and
make us feel like gods.  We are mammals, and have not exhausted the
annoying little problems of being mammals.
