使用分类数据而不连接线来创建线图 [英] Create a line plot using categorical data and not connecting the lines

问题描述

试图创建一个图形，其中x和y都是因素，但如果有间隙，我不希望将线连接起来.我该如何实现?

library(ggplot2)

df <- data.frame(x = c('a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e'), y = c('a', 'a', NA, 'a', 'a'))

ggplot(df, aes(x = x, y = y, group = y)) +
  geom_point() + 
  geom_line()

不要在绘图中使用NA，并且b和d之间不应该有一条线.

解决方案

这可能需要对整个数据集进行额外的工作，但是一种方法是创建一个分组变量以在ggplot中使用，以防止不需要的连接.

df <- data.frame(x = c('a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e'), y = c('a', 'a', NA, 'a', 'a'), stringsAsFactors = FALSE)

df %>% 
  mutate(grp = with(rle(y), rep(seq_along(lengths), lengths))) %>%  # y can't be a factor
  mutate_all(as.factor) %>%
  na.omit() %>%                              # Drop NA cases so they're not plotted
  ggplot(aes(x = x, y = y, group = grp)) +
  geom_point() + 
  geom_line() +
  scale_x_discrete(drop = FALSE)             # Preserve empty factor levels in the plot

Trying to create a graph where both x and y are factors but I don't want the lines to be connected if there is a gap. How can I achieve this?

library(ggplot2)

df <- data.frame(x = c('a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e'), y = c('a', 'a', NA, 'a', 'a'))

ggplot(df, aes(x = x, y = y, group = y)) +
  geom_point() + 
  geom_line()

Dont want the NA in the plot and there shouldn't be a line between b and d.

解决方案

This may need extra work with your full dataset but one approach is to create a grouping variable to use in ggplot to prevent connections that aren't wanted.

df <- data.frame(x = c('a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e'), y = c('a', 'a', NA, 'a', 'a'), stringsAsFactors = FALSE)

df %>% 
  mutate(grp = with(rle(y), rep(seq_along(lengths), lengths))) %>%  # y can't be a factor
  mutate_all(as.factor) %>%
  na.omit() %>%                              # Drop NA cases so they're not plotted
  ggplot(aes(x = x, y = y, group = grp)) +
  geom_point() + 
  geom_line() +
  scale_x_discrete(drop = FALSE)             # Preserve empty factor levels in the plot
