Question

I am trying to make a tiled plot with ggplot2 with a single variable. The data looks like this:

fruit numbers
apples 6
peaches 2
grapes 10
cherries 2
... many more fruit

I can plot the same data as the x and as the y variables, I can use this code:

p <- qplot(fruit,fruit) + geom_tile(aes(fill=numbers))

The output looks like this:

The above plot is precisely what I would like to plot; however, I need the data arranged in a single horizontal 1-dimensional plot. How can I create a 1D horizontal titled plot with 1 variable?

Answer 1

p <- qplot(fruit," ") + geom_tile(aes(fill=numbers))
