[R] error message when plotting survival curves

2008-10-20 Thread A Van Dyke

I am trying to plot survival curves using the following code as an example:

rs1799964.coxph-(coxph(Surv(sassurvmonths,status)~age+stage+rs1799964_TNFA,method=efron))

plot(rs1799964.coxph,lyt=c(1,3),xlab=Survival in Months,ylab=Proportion
Surviving)

I am gettingthe following error message:


Error in xy.coords(x, y, xlabel, ylabel, log) : 
  'x' and 'y' lengths differ


Any input to debugging this matter would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you
in advance.

I believe that you have to specify which variable is the x and also
the y.  I am not familiar with what you are doing, but it looks as
though you need to specify both x and y to get it to plot.

make us feel like gods.  We are mammals, and have not exhausted the
annoying little problems of being mammals.

You can't plot a coxph object. You probably want 
plot(survfit(rs1799965.copxh))
