Hi all,

I'm trying to plot this two curves in a single cartesian plane, but when I
plot the first one, the plot appears with no negative "y" value. When I plot
the second curve, it almost does not apear in the graph.

I was trying the plot.window but with no success.

Can someone help me with this?

The answer is in

        ?par

but it requires a bit of deduction. Start with the description of yaxs, which refers to xaxs. Notice what the xaxs paragraph says about xlim. If you can figure out that there is also a ylim arg, then you are pretty much finished. Something like

        plot( f, -10, 10, ylim=c(-100,100) )

will reveal both curves.

xlim and ylim also appear briefly in R-Intro ni Appendix A.

FWIW, one can use xlim and ylim to 'zoom in' on a section of a plot.

HTH,

If possible, I'd like to plot this curves in a perfect cartesian plane.

f = function(x) {
 x^2
}
f2 = function(x) {
 -x^2
}

plot(f,-10,10)
abline(h=0, v=0, col = "gray60")
curve(f2,col="orange", add=T)

Thanks in advanced!
