如何在R中的x轴上绘制带有分类变量的散点图

Question

我试图通过x轴的发育阶段在y轴上生成权重图。在每个发展阶段有几百个样本包含数据点，我试图从中提取增长率曲线。我不知道如何以x轴代表三个分类变量（“ColonyMass_At_Wrkr_Eclosion”，“ColonyMass_4wksLater”和“ColonyMass_2mnthsLater”）的方式绘制它，我也不知道如何为同一个人连接数据点跨变量（如果有意义的话，创建一系列曲线）。我使用dput（）复制我的数据帧有些困难，但我已经尽力了。有什么建议？非常感谢你！：

Answer 1

# add an id column (presumably rows are individuals)
just_growth_data$id <- 1:nrow(just_growth_data)

# melt the data, collapsing the three categorical columns down into two:
# variable (the column name) and value (the column value)
require(reshape)
data.m <- melt(just_growth_data, id.vars="id")

# a simple scatterplot with the original rows connected
ggplot(data.m, aes(x=variable, y=value, group=id)) +
  geom_line() +
  geom_point()
