[R] Range difference of plot two arrays in one plot

[Jeff Newmiller]

One method is to follow correct usage of base graphics and only use the plot function once for each plot. To overlay, use a function like points or lines.

Another approach is to use lattice graphics or ggplot2 and give the data to higher-level plot routines that know how to plot multiple groups of data together.
