Confused with an error message related to "plotrix" library in the newer versions of R.

Hi Jim,

It's working perfectly fine with the "rxcol" parameter. I am just
wondering how could I miss that..!!!
By the way, many thanks for pointing it out... Otherwise, I would have
been using the old version of R for just getting the required plot.

Much Appreciated,
Prasanth.

require(plotrix)



xy.pop<- c(17,15,13,11,9,8,6,5,4,3,2,2,1,3)

xx.pop<- c(17,14,12,11,11,8,6,5,4,3,2,2,2,3)

"35-39","40-44","45-49","50-54","55-59","60-64","65+")

xycol<-color.gradient(c(0,0,0.5,0.15),c(0.25,0.5,0.5,1.75),c(0.5,1.5,1,0),
18)

xxcol<-color.gradient(c(0,1,0.5,1),c(0.25,0.5,0.5,1.25),c(0.5,0.25,0.5,1.5

par(mar=pyramid.plot(xy.pop,xx.pop,labels=agelabels, labelcex=1.125,

                 main="Population Pyramid -- Malawi", xycol=xycol,
xxcol=xxcol))

Hi Prasanth V P,
Just a typo. Try this:

par(mar=pyramid.plot(xy.pop,xx.pop,labels=agelabels,labelcex=1.125,
  main="Population Pyramid -- Malawi", lxcol=xycol,rxcol=xxcol))

Nice plot.

Jim
