title: How to Remove Tick Marks on Boxplot
body: <p>I am trying to remove the x-axis tick marks from my boxplot, but keep the labels associated with the tick marks. Is this possible in base R?</p>
  
  <pre><code>colors &lt;-c("lightskyblue3", "gray78","gold1", "wheat1")
  boxplot(avgscore~module, data=microbox,
  names=c("Cultural Diversity","UDL","Differentiated", "Instruction","Classroom Management"),ylim = range(2.5,4.5), ylab="Average Score", 
  # main="Distribution of Average Score by Module",#
  col=(c("lightskyblue3", "gray78","gold1", "wheat1")))
  </code></pre>
