[R] Sort data and symbol change in Jitter plot (ggplot2)

[Luis Fernando García]

Thanks all of you guys!

Your answers were very useful!

Thanks for the answer John, but I will try to keep the dotplot, but it is
very useful to know both techniques anyway :)

Petr, many thanks for your help, it was just what I needed, btw, the
arrangment based on the median was a headache for me! again, thanks!!!
