Hi,
I want to do an interactive plot in R:
I have a time series and I can plot it in the normal way:
plot(modifieddate,timeseries,type="l",xlab="Date",ylab="values",
main="title")
(modifieddate is the values for the date on the x axis)
The aim now is, that I want to do a Latex Presentation, where if it
comes to the slide where the plot is, the plot not just
appears/shows up, but it is "drawn", that means, as if an human
would draw it with a pencle. So I googled and I thougth it would be
the best if I generate png for every point and match these to one
gif an implement this. But the problem ist, I do not know, how to
do these png in r? Could you help me?
1. Step I think is, to do a loop to draw every single point, but
how can I do this?
This does not work:
for (i in 1: length(timeseries){
plot(modifieddate,timeseries[i],type="l",xlab="Date",ylab="values",
main="title",add=1)
}
2. save every single drawing as a png, how can I do this?
Thanks a lot for your help!
