Hii,

200.0      1.79      3.00      1.945     0

The first thing I do is, to run the command
y<-matrix(c(test$V3),ncol=8)
to divide the third column in 8 matrices to create 8 boxplots.
The I run the command
w<-summary(y) 
to get the values min, max, mean, median, 1.Quan, 3.Quan

My problem is, I cann't run the plot command to create the 8 boxplots in a
graph...
The command 
plot(y)
gives me an error..

Can anybody help me to create the boxplot from matrices in a graph ?

greetings,
j
