[R] changing origin and plotting complex graphs

[Jannis]

Hi Muzna,

how about you getting first familiar with the basics of R?
Have a look at the manuals on the CRAN webpage 
(http://cran.r-project.org/) or get an introductive textbook. Your 
questions are very basic so it will not be too hard for you to get 
started. In case you get stuck with a particular problem, come back to 
the list but include the code for a reproducible example.

To get you started have a look at documentation for the functions:

?read.csv
?plot
?par


This list is mostly to help you with specific problems and not to teach 
you on how to use R.
