Hello,

You are calling plot.default with 4 arguments.
The first 2 are x and y.
The 3rd is type.
So MyData$NWorthSm becomes the 4th, xlim.
When you pass xlim a value, MyData$NWorthSm becomes the next one, ylim.
Etc, etc, etc.

It will throw the errors in the order of the arguments you can see in ?plot.default:

## Default S3 method:
plot(x, y = NULL, type = "p",  xlim = NULL, ylim = NULL,
     log = "", main = NULL, etc, etc, etc)


So now if you pass a log = <something>, it's the time for argument main.

Revise the reason why you are passing MyData$NWorthSm.


Hope this helps,

Rui Barradas

Please consider the following R statements:

     > x = seq(1:1632)
     > length( MyData$NWorth )
     [1] 1632
     > length( MyData$NWorthSm )
     [1] 1632
     > plot( x, MyData$NWorth, type="l" )
     > plot( x, MyData$NWorthSm, type="l" )
     > plot( x, MyData$NWorth, MyData$NWorthSm, type="l" )

All of the above statements work except for the last one. The last one produces the following message:

     Error in plot.window(...) : invalid 'xlim' value

So I then tired this:

     > xlim1 = c(0, 5000)
     >plot( x, MyData$NWorth, MyData$NWorthSm, type="l", xlim = xlim1 )

Which produced the following error message:
     Error in plot.window(...) : invalid 'ylim' value

So, I tired this:
     > ylim1 = c(0,9000)
    > plot( x, MyData$NWorth, MyData$NWorthSm, type="l", xlim = xlim1, ylim = ylim1 )

Which produced the following error message:
     Error in strsplit(log, NULL) : non-character argument

I would like to know what I am doing wrong.

Thank you,
Bob
