Inconsistent histogram count

[sh k]

g1<-  ggplot()+geom_histogram(bins=5,aes(x=1:5))+xlab("1 to 5")

g2<-  ggplot()+geom_histogram(bins=5,aes(x=1:5+0.5))+xlab("1.5 to 5.5")

g1 results in 1,1,1,1,1

g2 results in 2,1,1,1  #Missing one bin

Thanks in advance

Hi,

You can use a geom_bar() instead of a geom_histogram to make sure you are counting the number of occurrences for each level in your x:

g2 <- ggplot() + geom_bar(aes(x = 1:5 + .5)) + xlab(“1.5 to 5.5”)

g2 will give you five bins, with one observation each.

Best,

Lorenzo
