[R] Beginner having issues with making pie charts and other graphs

[Carl Witthoft]

Rule Number One:  Don't use pie charts.

Rule Number Two:  NEVER EVER USE PIE CHARTS!

To learn how to create graphs in R, start with ?plot , ?points,  ?lines.  
Later on you can investigate ?lattice, ?grid,  and ?ggplot2 .
The fact that you're looking 'online' instead of in R's builtin help
mechanisms is disconcerting.
