flufflyball.plot	R Documentation
Plot beautiful sun graphs like a fluffly ball.

Description

Produce a stylized sun-like plot of the given (grouped) values. The length of the line corresponds to normalized values sweeped around clockwise according to coordinates provided by user.

Usage

flufflyball.plot (id,group,coord,values,...)
Arguments

id	
A character vector where ids corresponds to the id name of each observation.
group	
A numeric or integer vector where group corresponds to the group of each observation
coord	
A numeric or integer vector where coord corresponds to coordinates of each observation
values	
A numeric or integer vector where values corresponds to the values of each observation to be represented in the plot
filter	
A natural number for a threshold of the minimal value to be represented in the plot. Default: filter=0
cex.circle	
A numerical value giving the amount by which the centered circle should be magnified for . Default:cex.circle=6
plot.legend	
Logical. If TRUE plots a legend. Default:plot.legend=TRUE
cex.legend	
A numerical value giving the amount by which the legend should be magnified for . Default:cex.legend=6
exclude.na	
Logical. If TRUE exclude all observations with any NA. Default:exclude.na=TRUE
Value

Returns a vector for unique "ids" ('id' levels) filtered by parameter 'filter' and plotted.

flufflyball.plot(id=sample(LETTERS,1000,replace = TRUE), group=sample(1:2,1000, replace=TRUE), coord=seq(1:1000), values=sort(rnorm(1000,mean=100,sd=7), decreasing = TRUE))
