A function for creating harmonized ggplot2 boxplots

Usage

box.plot(
  parent.df,
  y.col = "AGE",
  y.label = "AGE",
  category.col = "TRTGRP",
  category.label = "Treatment Group",
  y.limits = NULL,
  y.ticks = NULL,
  y.digits = 0,
  shape.palette = c(21, 22),
  category.palette = c(2, 3),
  text.size = 4
)

{
data(demog.data)
# pre-processing

levels(demog.data$SEX) <- c("Female", "Male")

 p1 <- box.plot(parent.df = demog.data, 
     y.col = "BMI", 
     y.label = expression(paste("BMI (m/kg",phantom()^2,")")), 
     category.col = "SEX",
     category.label = "Gender", 
      y.limits = c(0, 70), 
      y.ticks = seq(0, 100, 10), 
      y.digits = 0,
      shape.palette = c(20, 20),
