# --- Plot using external dataset

# Create a dummy dataset
test <- data.frame(Time = as.Date(paste0("2019-",c(1:12), "-01")),
                   N = sample(c(4000:6000), 12),
                   mean = sample(c(4000:5000), 12))

# Plot the dummy data
plotTS12MAvg(test,
             xvar = "Time",
             yvar = "N",
             movAverage = "mean")
