Hi all, please consider this plot:

 

xx <- seq(4, 0.01, by = -0.04)

yy <- rnorm(xx)

plot(xx, yy, type="l")

 

Here you see my original 'xx' was in decreasing order, however R puts it in
the increasing order. I understand that in any plot x and y axis grow is
increasing order, however I am wondering whether I can manipulate this to
suit my above particular problem, so that number displayed in x-axis would
be in the given order.

 

Thanks,
