Details

'tabpct' gives column and row percent cross-tabulation as well as mosaic plot.

The width of the bar in the plot denotes the relative proportion of the row variable.

Inside each bar, the relative proportion denotes the distribution of column variables within each row variable.

The default value for the 'percent' orientation is "both". It can also be "col" or "row".

Due to limitation of 'mosaicplot', certain graphic parameters such as 'cex.main', 'cex.lab' are not acceptable. The parameter 'main', 'xlab' and 'ylab' can be suppressed by making equal to " ". An additional line starting with 'title' can be used to write new main and label titles with 'cex.main' and 'cex.lab' specified.

.data <- Oswego
attach(.data)
agegr <- cut(age, breaks=c(0,20,40,60,80))
tabpct(agegr, ill)
tabpct(agegr, ill, cex.axis=1) # enlarge value labels
# To increase the size of the various titles:
tabpct(agegr, ill, cex.axis=1, main="", xlab="", ylab="", col=c("blue","purple"))
title(main="Diseased by Age group", cex.main=1.8,
    xlab="Age (years)",ylab="Diseased", cex.lab=1.5)
detach(.data)
rm(list=ls())
