[R] qplot: plotting precipitation data

[John Kane]

Thanks for the data. It makes things much easier.

Do you want a bar chart (i.e. geom  = bar in qplot or geom_bar in ggplot)? That sounds like what you mean when you speak of rectangles.  

If so try this ggplot) command -- I almost never use qplot() so I am not quite sure how to specify it there.

p  <-  ggplot(mydata , aes(as.factor(start), peak )) + geom_bar(stat= "identity", )
p
