stat_prop

Compute proportions according to custom denominator

Description

stat_prop is a variation of ggplot2::stat_count() allowing to compute custom proportions according to the by aesthetic defining the denominator (i.e. all proportions for a same value of by will sum to 1). The by aesthetic should be a factor.

Usage

stat_prop(
  mapping = NULL,
  data = NULL,
  geom = "bar",
  position = "fill",
  ...,
  width = NULL,
  na.rm = FALSE,
  orientation = NA,
  show.legend = NA,
  inherit.aes = TRUE
)

Arguments

`mapping`	Set of aesthetic mappings created by `aes()` or `aes_()`. If specified and `inherit.aes = TRUE` (the default), it is combined with the default mapping at the top level of the plot. You must supply `mapping` if there is no plot mapping.
`data`	The data to be displayed in this layer. There are three options: If `NULL`, the default, the data is inherited from the plot data as specified in the call to `ggplot()`. A `data.frame`, or other object, will override the plot data. All objects will be fortified to produce a data frame. See `fortify()` for which variables will be created. A `function` will be called with a single argument, the plot data. The return value must be a `data.frame`, and will be used as the layer data. A `function` can be created from a `formula` (e.g. `~ head(.x, 10)`).
`geom`	Override the default connection between `geom_bar` and `stat_prop`.
`position`	Position adjustment, either as a string, or the result of a call to a position adjustment function.
`...`	Other arguments passed on to `layer()`. These are often aesthetics, used to set an aesthetic to a fixed value, like `colour = "red"` or `size = 3`. They may also be parameters to the paired geom/stat.
`width`	Bar width. By default, set to 90% of the resolution of the data.
`na.rm`	If `FALSE`, the default, missing values are removed with a warning. If `TRUE`, missing values are silently removed.
`orientation`	The orientation of the layer. The default (`NA`) automatically determines the orientation from the aesthetic mapping. In the rare event that this fails it can be given explicitly by setting `orientation` to either `"x"` or `"y"`. See the Orientation section for more detail.
`show.legend`	logical. Should this layer be included in the legends? `NA`, the default, includes if any aesthetics are mapped. `FALSE` never includes, and `TRUE` always includes. It can also be a named logical vector to finely select the aesthetics to display.
`inherit.aes`	If `FALSE`, overrides the default aesthetics, rather than combining with them. This is most useful for helper functions that define both data and aesthetics and shouldn't inherit behaviour from the default plot specification, e.g. `borders()`.

Aesthetics

stat_prop() understands the following aesthetics (required aesthetics are in bold):

x or y
by (this aesthetic should be a factor)
group
weight

Computed variables

count: number of points in bin
prop: computed proportion

Examples

# Small function to display plots only if it's interactive
p_ <- GGally::print_if_interactive

d <- as.data.frame(Titanic)

p <- ggplot(d) +
  aes(x = Class, fill = Survived, weight = Freq, by = Class) +
  geom_bar(position = "fill") +
  geom_text(stat = "prop", position = position_fill(.5))
p_(p)
p_(p + facet_grid(~ Sex))

p_(ggplot(d) +
  aes(x = Class, fill = Survived, weight = Freq) +
  geom_bar(position = "dodge") +
  geom_text(
    aes(by = Survived), stat = "prop",
    position = position_dodge(0.9), vjust = "bottom"
 ))

p_(ggplot(d) +
  aes(x = Class, fill = Survived, weight = Freq, by = 1) +
  geom_bar() +
  geom_text(
    aes(label = scales::percent(after_stat(prop), accuracy = 1)),
    stat = "prop",
    position = position_stack(.5)
 ))
