Plotting Guide

Description

This website is for generating standard statistical graphics in R. The goal is to teach the user how to use basic Lattice skills through examples.

Alter and combine the code to have it fit your needs. There is no problem in repeating the same Variation(s) with different arguments within the same plot.

Please make sure to take a look at the Documents and Tips tab. It contains very useful information.

If you are wanting to print from this website, make sure the print setup is set to 'Landscape' instead of portrait.
Keeping the print setup in 'Portrait' is fine for printing code.

The site is optimized to be full screen on the ENGINE laptops
