Not sure if this is what you want, but give it a shot anyway: plot(x, y, xaxt="n") axis(1, at=x, label=names(x)) Andy
From: Haiyong Xu Hello, I am a beginner of R. I want to plot the vectors Y vs. X where X has continuous interger values. How can I use the name of each element as the tick label? Thanks a lot! Haiyong
