Dear list members,
is it intentional that:
curve(cos, xlim = c(-5, 5))
plot(cos, xlim = c(-5, 5))
produce different plots?
Shouldn't the 'xlim' argument in both cases set the 'from' and 'to' argument if they
aren't supplied (at least that's what I understood reading the help page for 'curve' and
'plot.function')?

Yes, that's a bug in plot(). It sets the default for from and to before it checks whether xlim was supplied. I'll fix it. Duncan Murdoch
