I suspect the problem stems from the fact that there are a couple of NA values.
> sunflowerplot(lastoto,maxear) Error in rep.int(i.multi, number[number > 1]) : invalid number of copies in rep.int() So I used the subset command to get rid of the cases with NA hell<-subset(ChinOtoMayB,is.na(lastoto)==FALSE) Then it worked perfectly sunflowerplot(hell$lastoto,hell$maxear) Is there a method with greater finesse to deal with NA values? In correlations one can state use="complete.obs" But that did not work in sunflowerplot -- Farrel Buchinsky [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
