Try this. You also had some typos on the names and weren't using the
dataframe correctly.
x - read.table(textConnection( CompanyPt
Pri Pub

4C WO248 1/13/09 9/2/10),
header = TRUE, as.is = TRUE)
closeAllConnections()
x$Pri - as.Date(x$Pri, format = '%m/%d/%y')
x$Pub - as.Date(x$Pub, format = '%m/%d/%y')
y - seq(0,0.5*(length(x$Company)-1),0.5)
h - 0.1
plot(range(x$Pri, x$Pub), c(0, nrow(x) - 1), type = 'n')
rect(x$Pri, y-h, x$Pub, y+h, col=c(light blue,pink,yellow,red))

Hi,
I am trying to use rect (R2.11) to plot a set of data as following
data
Company Pt Pri Pub
1 A WO520 8/5/09 2/11/10
2 B WO893 7/30/03 2/24/05
3 A WO258 12/8/08 6/17/10
4 C WO248 1/13/09 9/2/10
pri- strptime(pri,%m/%d/%y)
pub - strptime(pub,%m/%d/%y)
plot.new()
plot.window(xlim=c(min(pri,pub),max(pri,pub)),ylim=c(0,length(company)-1))
%y - seq(0,0.5*(length(company)-1),0.5)
%h - 0.1
%rect(pri, y-h, pub, y+h, col=c(light blue,pink,yellow,red))
Neither xlim nor rect/boxplot recognizes pri/pub with date format. I wonder
if there is a good way to deal with the date ploting so the x-axis can
reflect the actual time range.
Thank you,
Eric
