Re: [R] having more than one plot in one figure
Where is the problem with your code? You seem to have understood the principle correct and all what you want to to is possible with your code. You only seem to have made some typos (or is there any other reason why you plot num1 twice?), otherwise I do not really understand why you can not add num3 and change the plot type to 'b'? kayj schrieb: Hi All, I have been trying to plot multiple line plots with different colors on one figure. in my example below I was able to plot cat vs num1 as a dot plot connected with lines but was not able to do that for cat vs num2 and I do not know how to add the third plot cat vs num3. below is my code df <- data.frame(cat=1:10, num1=rnorm(10), num2=rnorm(10), num3=rnorm(10)) plot(df$num1, type="b", col="red", xlab="categories", ylab="random numbers") points(df$num1, type="p", pch=21, col="red",bg="red")#plot "num1" points(df$num2, type="p", pch=21, col="green") #plot "num2" legend(x="topright", legend=c("num1", "num2"), pch=c(16,16), col=c("red","green"))#add a legend how to make the second plot of type="b" and how to add a third plot cat vs num3?

I don't understand why you did not look at the help page for points and realize that type="b" would work.

[R] having more than one plot in one figure
Hi All, I have been trying to plot multiple line plots with different colors on one figure. in my example below I was able to plot cat vs num1 as a dot plot connected with lines but was not able to do that for cat vs num2 and I do not know how to add the third plot cat vs num3. below is my code df <- data.frame(cat=1:10, num1=rnorm(10), num2=rnorm(10), num3=rnorm(10)) plot(df$num1, type="b", col="red", xlab="categories", ylab="random numbers") points(df$num1, type="p", pch=21, col="red",bg="red")#plot "num1" points(df$num2, type="p", pch=21, col="green") #plot "num2" legend(x="topright", legend=c("num1", "num2"), pch=c(16,16), col=c("red","green"))#add a legend how to make the second plot of type="b" and how to add a third plot cat vs num3?
