Relative frequency histogram in R, ggplot
18,152
You want a histogram, not a barplot, so:
ggplot(dt, aes(x = a)) +
geom_histogram(aes(y = stat(count) / sum(count)), bins = 8) +
scale_y_continuous(labels = scales::percent)
lattice
:
ggplot2
:
You can see that the binning algorithm works slightly different for the two packages.

I can draw relative frequency histogram in R, using
lattice
package:a <- runif(100) library(lattice) histogram(a)
I want to get the same graph in
ggplot
. I trieddt <- data.frame(a) ggplot(dt, aes(x = a)) + geom_bar(aes(y = ..prop..))+ scale_y_continuous(labels=percent)
but it doesn't work like that. What I should change in the code? Calculating relative frequency before graph is not an option for me.
