In my script I'm printing multiple plots separately. Something like:
library(ggplot2)
mtcars$gear <- factor(mtcars$gear,levels=c(3,4,5),
labels=c("3gears","4gears","5gears"))
mtcars$am <- factor(mtcars$am,levels=c(0,1),
labels=c("Automatic","Manual"))
mtcars$cyl <- factor(mtcars$cyl,levels=c(4,6,8),
labels=c("4cyl","6cyl","8cyl"))
qplot(wt, mpg, data=mtcars, geom=c("point", "smooth"),
method="lm", formula=y~x, color=cyl,
main="Regression of MPG on Weight",
xlab="Weight", ylab="Miles per Gallon")
qplot(gear, mpg, data=mtcars, geom=c("boxplot", "jitter"),
fill=gear, main="Mileage by Gear Number",
xlab="", ylab="Miles per Gallon")
It perfectly plots in different pages.
Now, I'd like the user to have the choice to plot or not these plots. Therefore, I've changed my script to:
library(ggplot2)
GENERATE_PLOTS = TRUE
# create factors with value labels
mtcars$gear <- factor(mtcars$gear,levels=c(3,4,5),
labels=c("3gears","4gears","5gears"))
mtcars$am <- factor(mtcars$am,levels=c(0,1),
labels=c("Automatic","Manual"))
mtcars$cyl <- factor(mtcars$cyl,levels=c(4,6,8),
labels=c("4cyl","6cyl","8cyl"))
if(GENERATE_PLOTS)
{
qplot(wt, mpg, data=mtcars, geom=c("point", "smooth"),
method="lm", formula=y~x, color=cyl,
main="Regression of MPG on Weight",
xlab="Weight", ylab="Miles per Gallon")
qplot(gear, mpg, data=mtcars, geom=c("boxplot", "jitter"),
fill=gear, main="Mileage by Gear Number",
xlab="", ylab="Miles per Gallon")
}
However, when running this, it plots only the last plot...
Can someone enlighten me why this is happening and how can I avoid it? Or if there is better way to deal with these kind of "user preferences" on what he wants the script to do?
Thanks!
