Statistical Analysis: an Introduction using R/R/Univariate plots

Producing rough plots in R is extremely easy, although it can be time consuming tweaking them to get a certain look. The defaults are usually sensible.

Input:

stripchart(state.areas, xlab="Area (sq. miles)") #see method="stack" & method="jitter" for others
boxplot(sqrt(state.area))
hist(sqrt(state.area))
hist(sqrt(state.area), 25)
plot(density(sqrt(state.area))
plot(UKDriverDeaths)

qqnorm()
ecdf(
