Plot in details

When we plot, we can assign the plot title, label.
We can also choose to show axis or not. On axis, we can set notations' letter size by cex.axis, direction by las.


Sample codes:

image.data = matrix(rnorm(60), nrow=10, ncol=6)
windows()
par(mar=c(5, 5, 4, 1))
image(x=1:nrow(image.data), y=1:ncol(image.data), image.data, axes = FALSE, xlab="X", ylab = "Y", main = "SAMPLE")
par(las=2) #control word's direction on plot, las = 1 or 2
namess1 = paste("row", 1:ncol(image.data), sep="-")
axis(2, 1:ncol(image.data), namess1, cex.axis=0.9, tick = FALSE)
par(las=2)
namess2 = paste("col", 1:nrow(image.data), sep="-")
axis(1, 1:nrow(image.data), namess2, cex.axis=0.9, tick = TRUE)
box()



windows()
par(mar=c(5, 5, 4, 1))
boxplot(data.frame(image.data), axes = FALSE, xlab="cols", ylab = "Distribution", main = "SAMPLE")
axis(2, tick = TRUE)
par(las=1)
namess2 = paste("col", 1:nrow(image.data), sep="-")
axis(1, 1:nrow(image.data), namess2, cex.axis=0.9, tick = TRUE)
box();
