Something like this: x <- rnorm(100) (latest.ob <- x[100]) h <- hist(x) bin <- as.numeric(cut(latest.ob, h$breaks)) # need as.numeric for bin+1 lw <- h$breaks[bin] up <- h$breaks[bin+1] sz <- h$counts[bin] rect(lw,0,up,sz,col="red") -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Ă˜ster Farimagsgade 5, Entr.B c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics PO Box 2099, 1014 Cph.
