[R] Legend on graph

[jim holtman]

If you are asking to have the values plotted on top of the legend,
then you can do the following:

plot(x, y, type='n', ...) # create plot, but don't plot
legend('topright', ...)
lines(x,y)  # now plot the data

If you want it outside the plot, check the archives for several examples.
