Dear Kingfisher, Try this.
X <- as.matrix(read.table(textConnection(" 500 500 500 500 516 519 509 508 559 573 556 566 613 650 611 633 676 714 667 716 751 808 742 809 816 890 823 879"))) Year <- 2000 + 1:7 matplot(Year, X, type = "l", pch = 3, col = "grey") lines(Year, rowMeans(X), col = "red", lwd = 2) Bill Venables CSIRO Laboratories PO Box 120, Cleveland, 4163 AUSTRALIA Office Phone (email preferred): +61 7 3826 7251 Fax (if absolutely necessary): +61 7 3826 7304 Mobile: +61 4 8819 4402 Home Phone: +61 7 3286 7700 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.cmis.csiro.au/bill.venables/ -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of -Halcyon- Sent: Friday, 11 April 2008 1:06 AM To: r-help@r-project.org Subject: [R] Adding average into a matplot? Hi all, I have a matrix which is filled with simulation results for several years. Example of an output (7 years, 4 simulations): [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [1,] 500 500 500 500 [2,] 516 519 509 508 [3,] 559 573 556 566 [4,] 613 650 611 633 [5,] 676 714 667 716 [6,] 751 808 742 809 [7,] 816 890 823 879 My matplot gives me 4 lines, but I would like to add a line with the averages of each year for all simulations. Can anyone help me with this?
