[R] advanced plotting

[Francisco Zagmutt]

Look at the argument cex within ?par  You can also call cex directly 
from plot (notice in this case the number you use in cex is multiplied 
by the cex value set using par())

par(cex=1)
plot(1,cex=.1)#very small point
plot(1,cex=1)#"normal" point
plot(1,cex=5)#Large point


Alternatively, you can pass a character to be plotted using the pch 
argument i.e.
plot(1,pch=".")
