Hello,

what are they meaning? It could be something that
would show a threshhold above which the result is
indicating different meanings then just random noise.
But there is no description on the definition of those lines,
so it means nothing, if it is not clearly defined.

Where can I find a detailed definiton?


Ciao,

Look at

?plot.acf
[...]

OK, this was interesting.
It was what I have thought that it could be the case,
but what I was not sure about.





for which there is a pointer on the help to acf:
'The generic function plot has a method for objects of class "acf". '

class acf?! I have not heard of acf-class before.


So you are telling us you didn't read the documentation for acf which contains the following:

Value
An object of class "acf", which is a list with the following elements:

lag A three dimensional array containing the lags at which the acf is estimated.
acf An array with the same dimensions as lag containing the estimated acf.
type The type of correlation (same as the type argument).
n.used The number of observations in the time series.
series The name of the series x.
snames The series names for a multivariate time series.
