Respected R forum
I am learning R and relatively quite new to R. I am generating a scatter-plot
as given below. (My actual table is much larger).
# Sample data frame
y = c(20, 23, 17, 31, 68)
x = c(200, 300, 400, 500, 600)
plot(x, y, type = 'l')
If I plot this scatter-plot in excel, the data values are displayed if I place
the cursor at some desired place of the graph. E.g. if I place the cursor say
at the point (400, 31), then the value (400, 31) is displayed.
My question(s) are
.... easily answered by looking at the help pages.
(A) once I plot a graph in R, is it possible to display a particular (x, y)
co-ordinate by placing the cursor there?
?locator
Shouldn't that be ?identify?
And the OP might also want to check out the HWidentify/HTKidentify
functions in the TeachingDemos package.

(B) Suppose I have 100 pairs of (x, y ). then is it possible to display in the
graph (irrespective of the curosr position) the values of (x, y) corresponding
to say 10th, 20th, 30th, 40th etc. observations in the graph.
