You are still using html - you need to tell hotmail to use plain text only.
I can't replicate your error with the following: dados <- c(44, 40, 39, 38, 0, 7, 7, 1030, 57, 37, 5146, 40, 41, 4737, 34, 36, 2636, 28, 33, 3738, 26, 28, 2742, 38, 36, 3636, 27, 22, 2853, 43, 33, 40) plot(dados[1],type="o",pch=21,axes=FALSE,xlab="year",ylab="cases") lines(dados[2], type="o", pch=22) lines(dados[3], type="o",pch=23) lines(dados[4], type="o",pch=24) legend(1,8.5, legend=c("Pel","RG","SM","SV"),pch=21:24) axis(1,at=1:10,lab=c("2000","2001","2002","2003","2004","2005","2006", "2007","2008","2009")) axis(2,0:60) But I'm sure the result is not what you are looking for since you are using lines() to plot a single symbol (points() is normally used for this). You have 32 values in dados (or 40 if the 4-digit values should really be two 2-digit values). You are trying to plot 10 years on the x axis and you specify a range for the y-axis of 0 to 60, but the range in values is much greater. Use dput(dados) and paste that into your email and tell us what the plot should look like. As a wild guess let's say you really want dados <- matrix(c(44, 40, 39, 38, 0, 7, 7, 10, 30, 57, 37, 51, 46, 40, 41, 47, 37, 34, 36, 26, 36, 28, 33, 37, 38, 26, 28, 27, 42, 38, 36, 36, 36, 27, 22, 28, 53, 43, 33, 40), ncol=4) group <- c(rep("Pel", 10), rep("RG", 10), rep("SM", 10), rep("SV", 10)) year <- 2000:2009 matplot(year, dados, col=1, pch=21:24) legend("bottomleft", legend=c("Pel","RG","SM","SV"), pch=21:24) Is this closer to what you are looking for? ------- David > -----Original Message----- > From: r-help-boun...@r-project.org [mailto:r-help-bounces@r- > project.org] On Behalf Of aprendiz programa > Sent: Sunday, August 26, 2012 4:42 PM > To: r-help@r-project.org > Subject: Re: [R] error type > > > > > From: aprendizprog...@hotmail.com > To: r-help@r-project.org > Date: Mon, 27 Aug 2012 00:01:52 +0300 > Subject: [R] error type > > > Hi, > I am trying plot a grafic but generates an error: > Erro em plot.default(xlim, ylim, type = "n", ann = FALSE, axes = FALSE, > : argumento formal "type" corresponde a mzltiplos argumentos > especificado > >>plot(dados[1],type="o",pch=21, > axes=FALSE,xlab="year",ylab="cases")>>lines(dados[2], type="o", > pch=22)>>lines(dados[3], type="o",pch=23)>>lines(dados[4], > type="o",pch=24)>>legend(1,8.5, > legend=c("Pel","RG","SM","SV"),pch=21:24)axis(1,at=1:10, > lab=c("2000","2001","2002","2003","2004","2005","2006","2007","2008","2 > 009"))>>axis(2,0:60) > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] > > > ______________________________________________ > R-help@r-project.org mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting- > guide.html > and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. > > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
