To include a count label in a ggplot2 histogram that employs breaks, you need to use the geom_text
function with the stat
argument set to count
. Here is an example code:
library(ggplot2)
data(mtcars)
ggplot(mtcars, aes(x = mpg)) +
geom_histogram(binwidth = 2, color = "black", fill = "white") +
geom_text(stat = "count", aes(label = ..count..), vjust = -0.5)
In this code, geom_histogram
creates the histogram with specified binwidth, color and fill. geom_text
adds the count labels to the histogram bars using the stat = "count"
argument that counts the number of observations in each bin. The aes(label = ..count..)
argument specifies to use the count as the label for each bar, while vjust
adjusts the text position vertically.
