Creating a scatterplot with sequential dates on x-axis?
Hi Caitlin,
Here are a couple of options for you:
plot(x = seq(from = as.Date("2011-05-01"), to = as.Date("2011-05-30"),
by = "day"),
y = cumsum(runif(30)))
## using a bit of a shortcut
plot(x = as.Date("2011-05-01") + 0:29,
y = cumsum(runif(30)))
Does that do what you want?

Hi all. I need to plot 30 values and I'd like the x-axis to have 30 dates values, e.g., 5/1/2011, 5/2/2011, etc. so an observer could see how the values correspond as the month progresses. Is there a convenient function I could use? I considered creating two vectors, x and y, then simply plotting those. Thanks, ~Caitlin ? ? ? ?[[alternative HTML version deleted]]
