Histogram in ggplot












-1















I want to plot a histogram. I also want to have a density instead of frequency in y axis.



I am able to create the histogram but the y-axis is not changing to density.



enter image description here



Can you please help me?

Dipen Bista



test=data.frame(c(0.17,0.39,0.24,0.24,0.17,0.42,0.33,0.25,0.36,0.26,0.24,0.16))
names(test) = 'ratio'
ggplot(data=test,aes(x=test$ratio,y=..density..)) +
geom_histogram(breaks=seq(0.1,0.5, by=0.1),
col="black",
fill="light gray",
alpha=.8)+
labs(title="Histogram of Length ratio")+
labs(x='Angle',y='Density')+
theme_bw()

  • Just giving it the name "Density" does not change the Y-axis to a density measure.

  • Perhaps read ?geom_histogram, keeping a keen 👁 out for "Computed variables"
