It TRIES to draw it, but I don't see a -4 or 4 on the plot.
Well, the x limits likely don't extend that far. (You have noticed by now that the axis extents are not the same as the sides of the bounding box, right?) So set them: hist(x,xlim=c(-4,4)) Or generically: hist(x,xlim=range(pretty(x))) tends to give the kind of external axis that you're requesting. Less efficient use of space though (since the axis is always longer than it needed to be). -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Blegdamsvej 3 c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics 2200 Cph.
