[R] Help in Overlaying of 2 Plots on the same Device.

[Romain François]

Hello, it would be nice (as it is asked in the posting guide) to post 
something i can actually run on my machine, since i have no idea what 
are xvals, fr, .. i can only assume what you want.

1) if you want the second plot to overlay the first one (generated by 
hist) you might want to use ?points instead of plot.

2) Second, please look at the dimension of ds$y (usually 512) and the 
dimension of xvals[1:fr] (once more i can only assume), that's not the same.

3) It's not because you demand the density with values that lies in the 
interval [a,b] that the support of the density is [a,b], so it's not a 
problem to have that line. you may try

points(ds$x[someSubset],ds$y[someSubset],type="l")


Good luck with your problem (which is not perfectly clear for me, i'm 
not sure i got you clear)

Romain.
