Base Graphics:

plot(x,y,type="n")
segments(x[-length(x)],y[-length(x)],x[-1],y[-length(x)])
points(x[-length(x)],y[-length(x)],pch=16)
points(x[-1],y[-length(x)],pch=1)

Ggplot graphics:

library(ggplot2)
dta <- data.frame( x= x[-length(x)],y=y[-length(x)], xend=x[-1], 
yend=y[-length(x)] )
ggplot( dta, aes( x=x, y=y, xend=xend, yend=yend )) +
geom_segment()+
geom_point( shape=16, size=4 ) +
geom_point( aes( x=xend, y=yend, shape=1, size=4 )

There is also lattice graphics, but I don't feel like putting that example 
together right now.

As for how to use RStudio, please understand that RStudio has its own support 
forums. Please direct questions regarding that user interface there, and 
remember that the people answering questions here may be using completely 
different tools and operating systems than you are. I strongly recommend 
reading the R-help posting guide and reading other people's questions here to 
get the flavor of the kinds of question and answer format is preferred around 
here. Hint: this is a mailing list, not Nabble.

Easy tutorials? There are lots of them, but they don't necessarily get you 
where you want to go. I recommend reading the Introduction to R document that 
comes with R, with particular focus on vectors, lists,  matrices, data frames, 
and indexing. The apply family of functions will also be useful, but vectors 
and indexing are first priority. They all work together to make a very powerful 
combination, and learning those fundamentals will pay off in helping you 
decipher examples such as that ones above.
