[R] persp Error. x,y,z with the same length

[Greg Snow]

 x and y should be vectors with the coordinates, z should be a matrix
with the heights at the combination of those coordinates.  If x and y
are properly gridded in your dataset, then try something like:

> h   <- Measure3[,4]
> x   <- sort(unique(Measure3[,3]))
> y   <- sort(unique(Measure3[,2]))
> z <- matrix( h, ncol=length(x) )
> persp(x,y,z)

Hope this helps,
