Conditional Bivariate Binning into Hexagon Cells

Creates a list of hexbin objects. Basic components are a cell id and a count of points falling in each occupied cell. Basic methods are show(), plot() and summary(), but also erode.

Usage

hexList(x, y = NULL, given = NULL, xbins = 30, shape = 1,
        xbnds = NULL, ybnds = NULL, xlab = NULL, ylab = NULL)

Arguments

x: x coordinate to be binned
y: y coordinate to be binned
given: ..
xbins: number of bins partitioning the range of xbnds
shape: the shape = yheight/xwidth of the plotting regions
xbnds: horizontal limits of binning
ybnds: vertical limits of binning
xlab: character strings used as labels for x
ylab: character strings used as labels for y

Details

There is also a coerce method to produce hexbinList objects from lists.

Value

If it is a LIST, use

comp1: Description of 'comp1'
comp2: Description of 'comp2'
