r - 如何从数据框中创建组合箱线图？

Question

我想做一些令人难以置信的简单事情:我想为完整的数据框创建一个箱线图。然而，搜索“组合箱线图”和相关术语没有出现任何建议。如果我忽略了一个明显的方法，请告诉我。

我有以下数据:

我希望将所有这些数据汇总在一个箱线图中，但是，当我尝试绘制箱线图(即 boxplot(theData))时，R 会自动根据列名称进行分组。

我还尝试将完整的数据帧放入向量中，但是，因为我的(完整)数据集也包含 NA 值，所以我没有成功。到目前为止，我有以下函数来尝试创建数据帧的向量，以便可以将其绘制在箱线图中:

for(i in 1:ncol(allTheData)) {
        tmpData <- allTheData[,i]
        for(j in 1:length(tmpData)){
            if(!is.na(j)){
                tmpVector <- c(tmpVector, j)
            }
        }
    }

但是，我认为我使这个问题过于复杂化，并且我怀疑这样的循环构造是否有利于 R 的性能。

那么，如何为完整数据框制作由一个箱线图组成的箱线图？那么，我没有得到由 X20.7 到 X35.7 组成的箱线图，但给出了一个“总体”箱线图？

Answer 1

尝试这样的事情

boxplot(unlist(theData))
