Rotating axis labels in R

Question

How do I make a (bar) plot's y axis labels parallel to the X axis instead of parallel to the Y axis?

Accepted Answer

Not sure if this is what you mean, but try setting `las=1`. Here's an example:

```
require(grDevices)
tN <- table(Ni <- stats::rpois(100, lambda=5))
r <- barplot(tN, col=rainbow(20), las=1)
```

That represents the style of axis labels. (0=parallel, 1=all horizontal, 2=all perpendicular to axis, 3=all vertical)
