Re: [R] Problem with Plotting in R
You haven't described what you are trying to get with the command that doesn't work. My guess is that this might be what you want: plot( x, MyData$NWorth, type="l" ) lines( x, MyData$NWorthSm) However, you might also have to calculate and supply a for the ylim argument to plot(). -- Don MacQueen Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory 7000 East Ave., L-627 Livermore, CA 94550 925-423-1062 Lab cell 925-724-7509 On 12/18/18, 6:17 AM, "R-help on behalf of rsherry8" wrote: 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.

Re: [R] Problem with Plotting in R
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 = , it's the time for argument main. Revise the reason why you are passing MyData$NWorthSm.

Re: [R] Problem with Plotting in R
Dear Bob We do not have your data so it is hard to be sure but plot() takes two parameters for the data x and y so when you give it three you are confusing it into thinking one of them is something else. What exactly were you trying to do with the failed command?
