Hi,

The xlim and ylim arguments should be given the extremes of the range, not a range:
plot(x=NULL,
     y=NULL,
     xlim=c(1, 10),  ## with c()
     ylim=v(1e-9, 1e-3),  ## with c()
     log="y")

HTH,
Ivan

Dear mailing list readers!

Using R and the plot function I stumbled over this little issue:

plot(x=NULL,
     y=NULL,
     xlim=range(1:10),
     ylim=range(1e-9:1),
     log="y")

produces an plot empty plot, where the y-axis is in the specified range. Changing ylim to

ylim=range(1e-9:1e-3)

creates an y-axis in the range of 1e-12 to 1e-6. This appearance of the y-axis is a bit unexpected for me. Could anyone point me to a FAQ entry why this happens?

Thank you very much in advance!

Sincerely,
