locfit (version 1.1-3)

plotbyfactor: x-y scatterplot, colored by levels of a factor.

Description

Produces a scatter plot of x-y data, with different classes given by a factor f. The different classes are identified by different colours and/or symbols.

Usage

plotbyfactor(x, y, f, data, col, pch, add, lg,
             xlab = deparse(substitute(x)),
             ylab = deparse(substitute(y)), log = "", ...)

Arguments

x
Variable for x axis.
y
Variable for y axis.
f
Factor (or variable for which as.factor() works).
data
data frame for variables x, y, f. Default: sys.parent().
col
Color numbers to use in plot. Will be replicated if shorter than the number of levels of the factor f. Default: 1:10.
pch
Vector of plot characters. Replicated if necessary. Default: O.
add
If TRUE, add to existing plot. Otherwise, create new plot. Default: FALSE.
lg
Coordinates to place a legend. Default: Missing (no legend).
xlab
label for x-axis.
ylab
label for y-axis.
log
which axis should be plotted in log scale ("x", "y", or "xy".)
...
Other graphical parameters, labels, titles e.t.c.
