[R] barchart in black & white with 10 categories?

[Fredrik Karlsson]

Thank you Deepayan for your reply.

Using your example, I was able to get bars in greyscale that separates
nicelly in Black and white. However, I cannot get the key to do the
same. All I can do, using hte col argument of
simpleKey, is to get the legend text to shade go through all the grey
scales, with color boxes
by the text.

print(
  barchart(
  prop.table(pd,margin=1),
  auto.key=list(
  space="right",
  col=gray.colors(10)
     ),
  xlab="Relative Frequency",
  ylab="Age (months)",
  col = gray.colors(10)
  )
)
