Starting with the obvious -- x and y are arbitrary, so instead of plot (x, y) you can plot(y, x) If you need the data to be descending (smaller values on top, larger values on bottom) you can invert the normal ordering with ylim(big_value, small_value) If neither of these is what you are looking for, please elaborate a bit.
