[R] Histogram

[R Help]

It's difficult to understand what exactly you're looking for without
seeing an example, could you post a simple version?  imgur.com is a
website that lets you quickly upload pictures to share with others.

I think your problem can be solved with the type='s' option to the
general plot routine.  Consider the following three plots, I think the
third is the one you're looking for.

x = runif(10,0,1)
x2 = cumsum(x)

plot(x2)
plot(x2,type='l')
plot(x2,type='s')

Hope that helps,
Sam Stewart
