Peter,
thank you, that's what I was looking for!
David, I forgot to tell you my OS. Sorry... it's Win7. I'm running a RKWard
session.
And this is strange:
> Cairo("example.pdf", type="pdf",width=12,height=12,units="cm",dpi=300)
Error: could not find function "Cairo"
... maybe you're not using the Cairo package?
http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/Cairo/Cairo.pdf
And Dennis, thanks for the code. It worked, and I'm considering to adopt
data frames in the near future. By the way, I'm working with functional time
series, so each observation is a function (or a vector representing that
function evaluated on a grid) indexed by time. Any insights on how to
implement data frames here?
Best regards,
Eduardo
