Dear R-users,
I have a complex line by xy-values (ordered by z).
And I would like to get interpolated y-values on the positions of x = 0:600.
How do I get the correct points?

x = c (790,790,790,790,790,786,783,778,778,766,763,761,761,761,715,628,521,350,160,134,134,129,108,101,93,111,161,249,288,243,139,45,7 )

y = c (606,606,606,606,606,612,617,627,627,640,641,641,641,641,689,772,877,1048,1240,1272,1272,1258,1242,1239,1239,1214,1122,959,770,479,273,133,45 )

z = c (0,29,58,87,116,145,174,203,232,261,290,319,348,377,406,435,464,493,522,551,580,609,638,667,696,725,754,783,812,841,870,899,928 )


plot(y,x,type="b")

That would plot x as a function of y (the reverse of the usual convention. Is that what you want. If so, then the statement that these are ordered by z is misleading. Ordering by z would suggest that each series is a function of z. What sort of interpolation do you want and in how many dimensions?


# this fails ?????
lines(approx(y,x),col="blue") # with xout = c(0:600)

thanks in advance,
René
