Hi Hans,
Sorry, I'm really not describing what I want well!
There are two major series, each with three sub-series. If I plot each
major series individually as a histogram it would look something like this:
8 | #
7 | #
6 | #
5 | #
4 | # &
3 | # * & # &
2 | # * & * # &
1 |_#_*_&__#_*_&__#_*_&_
1 2 3
Lengths
The y-axis is the 'number of occurrences' at that length.
# sub-series 1
* sub-series 2
& sub-series 3
What I want to do is plot each major series along the z axis (and each
sub-series along the x-axis)
Each sub-series are the same i.e. (TCC, TCA, TCG) but each major series
is different (different species).
I've tried to do this in excel, however it interprets each sub-series an
individual series thus resulting in the graph shown in the attached pdf.
What I want is the first three series grouped together and the next thee
grouped together.
I hope this helps.
Many thanks,
Noel
