[R] switching only axis off in plot

[sachinthaka.abeywardana at allianz.com.au]

Hi R,

In the following code my x-axis is formatted in month format. Which Im
happy with. The y-axis is what I want to re-format with something else. My
question is, is it possible just to switch off the xaxis in plot function
(see below). If not how do you get the months to show up as FEB-YYYY,
MAR-YYYY and so on, so I could fit a label on x-axis.

Thanks,
Sachin
p.s. sorry about corporate notice.

period<-c(100120,100220,100320);
y<-1:3;
period<-as.Date(strptime(period,("%y%m%d")));

#the x-axis has a nice format with the month names
win.graph();
plot(period,y);

#I dont want to lose this x-axis formatting :-(
win.graph();
plot(period,y, axes=FALSE, ann=FALSE);
axis(2, at=1:3, labels=c("A","B","C"));
