[R] R plot

[Benoit Boulinguiez]

Hi,

Personally I always use xlim and ylim with the plot or points function like
that:

plot(	X,Y,pch=16,col=2,cex.axis=1.5,cex.lab=1.5,
	xlim=c(0,1.05*max(X)),ylim=c(0,1.05*max(Y))
	)


Regards/Cordialement

if you know the range in advance, you can specify it using the xlim and ylim
parameters to plot.  you can also use them in points (it doesn't cause an
error), but it does not seem to have the desired effect of reshaping the
plot.

it's perhaps a pity it works this way, but you have to get used to it. 
or drop r if you find matlab better.
