[R] graphs, need urgent help (deadline :( )

Dear Don, thank you very much.

I really wasn’t being able to figure the problem.

You were a big (huge) help.

Seeing the graphs, I think I’ll try to put the 3 settings (sample size)  in different graphs.

I’ll try to use trellis graphs :) using sample size as the “factor”

Thank you very much ;)

 


Atenciosamente,
Rosa Oliveira
