I would like to get a curve of normal distrubtion over the
histogram. Something like the following (which obviously doesn't
work; see attached example).
maluj <- function() {
vrhy=read.csv("pennies.csv",head=TRUE)
hf=table(vrhy$HEADS)
postscript("heads.eps",onefile=FALSE,width=4.134,height=3.445,pointsize=12)
plot(hf,main="Frequency distribution of heads",xlab="Throws",
ylab="Frequency")
lines(rnorm(length(hf),mean=mean(hf),sd=sd(hf)))
dev.off(2)
}
Any help, please?
Thanks
Matej
