[R] Fwd: how to modify the tickment of x-axis

[John Kane]

dput() is a way to print out your data in a covenient format for others to read it into an R session.  It has nothing to do with graphing. 

You use the command dput(myfile) to output a data object  or perhaps dput(head(myfile, 10) to output a subset of your file.

Copy and paste into your email and people on the R-help list then can see what your data looks like.  It makes solving problems much easier.

Here is one from a simple data set I use for experimenting.  ( I added the " mat1 <- " to read it into an r matrix.

mat1 <- structure(c(1, 1, 6, 1, 1, NA, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 3, 5, 3, 6,
4, 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, NA, 9, 9, 8, 9, 8, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,
12, 42, NA, 45, 32, 54, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23), .Dim = c(6L,
8L), .Dimnames = list(NULL, c("cata", "catb", "doga", "dogb",
"rata", "ratb", "bata", "batb")))

I believe others have already done this.

Good luck
