Hi,

I need to scan some files, and then do a boxplot graph of them.  I also save 
the output from the boxplot function, so I can process the data later.

For example, I need to scan 2 (it can be x, 0<x) files here.
A<-scan(F1)/100;
B<-scan(F2)/100;

Now let's try graph it. N1 is the label for F1, and so on.
bitmap(file=Name, type="png16m")
STATS<-boxplot(A,B,c(A,B),col="red", main="MyMain", names=c(N1, N2, "All"), 
xlab="Hardware", ylab="milliseconds")
dev.off();

The problem is I don't really know what I will have at runtime.  For example, I 
may have to scan 3 or 4 files at runtime.  Then, I will have to pass different 
arguments to boxplot, like

STATS<-boxplot(A,B,C,c(A,B,C),col="red", main="MyMain", names=c(N1, N2, N3, 
"All"), xlab="Hardware", ylab="milliseconds")
 

The function should look like:
process<-function(Name, F1, F2...N1,N2...)

How should I write a function that is flexible enough to handle this situation? 
 Thank you in advance.
