Optional graphical parameters

The following graphical parameters can optionally be added to customize the plot:

• border: Colour of the cell borders -- default value is"black".
• cex: Numeric value, giving the amount by which text on the plot should be scaled relative to the default (which is 1).
• cex.axis: Amount by which axis annotations should be scaled, as numeric value.
• cex.lab: Amount by which axis labels should be scaled, as numeric value.
• col: Vector of three text colours (or just one colour), where the first indicates 'full availability', the second 'partial availability' and the third 'not available' -- default is"black".
• col.axis: Colour to be used for axis -- default is"gray45".
• col.lab: Colour to be used for axis labels -- default is"black".
• fill: Vector of three fill colours (or just one colour), where the first indicates 'full availability', the second 'partial availability' and the third 'not available'.
• lwd: Line widths of the cell borders. Seeparfor usage.
• mar: A numerical vector of the form c(bottom, left, top, right) which gives the number of lines of margin to be specified on the four sides of the plot -- default isc(0, 0, 0, 0).
• plot.names: IfTRUE(the default), the names of the datasets is plotted as second label of the y axis.
• xlab: Alternative label for the x axis.
• ylab: Alternative label for the y axis.

# calculate availability

# plot availability
