Graphing bars over groups
This section focuses on the use of the
over()
option for showing bar charts by one
or more categorical variables.
It illustrates the use of the
over()
option with a single
y
-variables. We also look at some basic options, including
options for displaying the
over()
variable as though its levels were multiple
-variable and with multiple
y
y
-variables,
including missing values on the
over()
variable, and suppressing empty combinations of
multiple
over()
variables. See the
