Maybe this is helpful.
Install ggplot2.
#Create a small example
x <- seq(1:20)
y <- (2*x) + rnorm(length(x),0,1)
id <- rep(1:5,each=4)
dat <- data.frame(x,y,id)
library(ggplot2)
p <- ggplot(dat,aes(x=x,y=y,colour=factor(id)))
p <- p + geom_point()
p
If this is not the correct structure, maybe including an example will
help. For example,
you can output your data or a subset with dput.
dput(dat)
structure(list(x = 1:20, y = c(3.52519254181276, 5.24044281644567,
7.47776852203483, 7.4451075539517, 9.85463703204831, 12.533885478775,
14.2364347537978, 15.6031588004515, 17.2400819084948, 20.2053499115504,
21.4994848677570, 23.6354345765166, 24.5523452698087, 27.3185637999515,
28.5812163905758, 32.6805764070542, 37.0894956595204, 35.0009332656281,
39.6077996102053, 41.0996392969496), id = c(1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 2L,
2L, 2L, 2L, 3L, 3L, 3L, 3L, 4L, 4L, 4L, 4L, 5L, 5L, 5L, 5L)), .Names = c("x",
"y", "id"), row.names = c(NA, -20L), class = "data.frame")
