I have seen lots of question regarding converting count on y axis into percent but must of them are in bar plot.
I want to do similar thing in histogram but not able to show the labels on the bar clearly. Please tell me where I am doing wrong.
x = runif(100, min = 0, max = 10)
data1 <- data.frame(x = x)
ggplot(aes(x = x), data = data1)+
geom_histogram(aes(y = (..count..)/sum(..count..)), bins = 10, breaks =
seq(0,10,1), fill = "blue", col = "black")+
geom_text(aes(y = ((..count..)/sum(..count..)),
label = scales::percent((..count..)/sum(..count..))),
stat = "count", vjust = -10)+
scale_y_continuous(labels = scales::percent)
Output:
Use scale_y_continous
with breaks and labels will solve your problem.
data1 <- data.frame (x = runif(100, min = 0, max = 10))
ggplot(aes(x=x), data1) + stat_bin(aes(y = ..count..))
ggplot(data1, aes(x = x)) + geom_histogram(fill = "blue", col = "black")+ scale_y_continuous(breaks = seq(0,10,1),labels = paste(seq(0, 10, by = 1) / 100, "%", sep = ""))+geom_text(aes(y = (..count..),label = scales::percent((..count..)/sum(..count..))), stat="bin",colour="green",vjust=2)
or, you can specify where you would like to add the percentage like this:
geom_text(aes(y = (..count..)+0.5))
of course you can change the color as well. from,
stat="bin",colour="your prefer color "
Also you can change the width of the bins as follows:
geom_histogram(fill = "blue", col = "black", binwidth = 0.5)
