plot spaghetti data

To elaborate a bit on Harold's reply, the use of a "spaghetti plot" for more than 4 or 5 groups is not recommended. Consider the longitudinal data "sleepstudy" in the Matrix package. A spaghetti plot can be produced by
data(sleepstudy, package = "Matrix")
library(lattice)
xyplot(Reaction ~ Days, sleepstudy, groups = Subject, type = c('g','l'), aspect = 'xy')
Now compare this to the result of
xyplot(Reaction ~ Days | Subject, sleepstudy, type = c('g','p','r'), aspect = 'xy')
which is a lattice plot with the data for each subject in a separate panel. Even better is to use
xyplot(Reaction ~ Days | Subject, sleepstudy, type = c('g','p','r'), aspect = 'xy',
+ index.cond = function(x, y) coef(lm(y ~ x))[1]) where the panels are ordered according to a characteristic of the data (the intercept for the per-subject regression line) rather than in the more-or-less random order created by the subject number. library(lattice) xyplot(Reaction ~ Days

Dear All,
I wonder if there is an R function to plot longitudinal data (spaghetti
plots)...
I've seen the function "is.longitudinal" but without any succes...
Thanks a lot in advance,
Bernard
