To find the mean of a column grouped by date, we can simply use aggregate function. For Example, if we have a data frame called df that contains a date column say Date and numerical column say Num then we can find the mean of Num by dates in the Date column by using the below command −aggregate(Num~Date,df,mean)Example 1Following snippet creates a sample data frame −Date

To create a histogram with horizontal boxplot on top in base R, we first need to define the layout of the plotting area with layout function and par function margin (mar) then the boxplot will be created and after that the histogram will be created. While creating the boxplot and histogram we need to make sure that the ylim for boxplot and xlim for histogram are same.Check out the below Example to understand how it can be done.ExampleTo create a histogram with horizontal boxplot on top in base R, use the following snippet −x

The histogram like plot in base R is the plots of vertical lines instead of points in a vector or column of a data frame. If we increase the width of these lines then the plot becomes more like a histogram as the increment in widths make the vertical lines look like bars.To increase the width of lines for histogram like plots in base R, we can use lwd argument.Check out the below example to understand the difference between point chart and histogram like plot in base R.ExampleUse the code given below to increase the width of lines for histogram ...
