Hi I have a data set that needs to be plotted (see below)
When I plot it using the simple plot(read_count ~ Cn), I get box plots for
the read_count numbers plotted according to Cn. The Cn's on the x-axis are
ordered: 10000, 100, 1000, 40, 400, 4000...
How do I plot so that Cn is plotted on the x-axis in an ascending order: 40,
60, 80, .......10000?

Thanks for your help.
Anjan
