error message; ylim + log="y"

You have no data to plot.  What were you expecting it to do?
Well, I get the same error messages when I use real data.
So it has to do with the ylim-values specified.
When I get rid of the ylim argument definition it does work.

But why?
I don't understand why R can't plot a logarithmic y-axis from 1 to 10.000.
It doesn't need data for that, does it?

like this?

plot(c(),c(), xlim=c(1,10), ylim=c(0,10000), log="y")
Error in axis(side = side, at = at, labels = labels, ...) :
 CreateAtVector [log-axis()]: axp[0] = 0 < 0!
In addition: Warning messages:
1: In is.na(y) : is.na() applied to non-(list or vector) of type 'NULL'
2: In plot.window(...) :

3: In axis(side = side, at = at, labels = labels, ...) :

You have no data to plot.  What were you expecting it to do?  When you
say "lot of error messages", please include them and also follow the
posting guide.

Hi,

I get a lot of error messages with this command, but I don't understand why;

plot(c(),c(), xlim=c(1,10), ylim=c(0,10000), log="y")

thanks for any help!
