Stacked histogram or Stacked bar

51 views (last 30 days)
I want to plot the following:
Stacked
I am able to get the followIng:
using the code below:
load('Data.mat')
[N,edges] = histcounts(GTDF);
edges=[0 300 700 1200 2300]; %redefine the edges
[N,edges] = histcounts(GTDF,edges);
histogram(GTDF, edges, 'Normalization','probability', 'DisplayStyle','bar')
both diagrams are technically the same (percentage of counts and edges etc) but visually different. I want achieve the first diagram.
The reason i Want the first diagram is that i want to plot multiple of these Bars (as shown in first diagram) in the same window and diagram
The data is attached:

You can try the following
edges=[0 300 700 1200 2300 Inf]; %redefine the edges
[N,edges] = histcounts(GTDF,edges);
N = N./sum(N);
N(2,:) = NaN;
bar(N,'stacked');

The number 2 is shown because of the line.
N(2,:) = NaN;
This is needed, otherwise Matlab does not plot in stacked mode if there is one row.
You can change it to actual data if you have actual data to plot. This will plot a second bar.
% N(2,:) = N2; % second bar
The following will plot two bars, add legend, turn on grid, change the xtick labels.
load Data.mat
edges=[0 300 700 1200 2300 Inf]; %redefine the edges
[N,edges] = histcounts(GTDF,edges);
N = N./sum(N);
N(2,:) = N;
b = bar(N,'stacked');
xticks([1 2]);
xticklabels({'Some Label' 'Something Else'});
b(1).DisplayName = '<300';
b(2).DisplayName = '300-700';
b(3).DisplayName = '700-1200';
b(4).DisplayName = '1200-2300';
b(5).DisplayName = '>2300';
legend show
grid on

You can add percentages using text function. You need to pass x,y coordinates and text values.
ytext = cumsum(N,2) - 0.04; %y position of text
xtext = ones(size(ytext));
xtext = xtext + [0:1]' %x position of text
textval = string(N*100);
text(xtext(:),ytext(:),textval(:));
