[R] ggplot2: Choosing colours

[ONKELINX, Thierry]

Dear useRs,

I'm trying to specify the colour of a factor with ggplot2. The example
below gets me close to what I want, but it's missing a legend.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Thierry

library(ggplot2)
dataset <- data.frame(x = rnorm(40), y = runif(40), z = gl(4, 10, labels
= LETTERS[1:4]))
ggplot(data = dataset, aes(x = x, y = y, group = z)) + geom_point(colour
= c("red", "green", "blue", "black"))
