[R] Plot bivariate joint pdf

[beetle2]

Hi All,
Thankyou for your sugestions,
I Look through some other posts and learnt about the
persp() function.

So I ended up using;

x <- seq(0, 1, len = 20)
y <- seq(0, 1, len = 20)

model = function (x, y){
x+y}
z=outer(x, y ,model);

persp(x,y,z,theta=30,phi=30,ticktype="detailed")

Worked a real treat.

Thankyou all
