[R] series of boxplots

[Juliet Hannah]

If you could provide a small example of an actual data set (using
dput), you may get some suggestions
specific to your goals.

Here are a few examples of boxplots. If these look along the lines of
what you are looking for, you may want to search
the ggplot2 mailing list for more examples.

library(ggplot2)
qplot(factor(cyl), mpg, data=mtcars, geom="boxplot")

# example 2

mydata <- data.frame( group1=
sample(c("C","D"),size=100,replace=TRUE),
group2=sample(c("E","F"),size=100,replace=TRUE),  y=rnorm(100))

qplot(group2, y, data=mydata, facets = ~ group1,  geom="boxplot")
