Description

Useful for plotting item response functions. The x argument of irf should better be left out unless something special is required.

Arguments

When add=T, the IRF is added to a plot, otherwise a new plot is started. Default is F.

main

The main title of the plot, given that add=F.

co

The colour of the IRF curve. Default is 1 for black. Use co=NA to plot each IRF in a different colour.
