below is milton's example with the text command changed to be the values of y itself ? is that what you wanted ?

x<-runif(20)
y<-rnorm(20)
df<-data.frame(cbind(x,y))

plot(y~x, data=df, type="n")
text(df$x, df$y, df$y)

Thanks Milton,

I am finding this a little hard to explain. The code you gave me produced all 0.0 points whereas what I am looking for are the points to correspond to
a specific column. I'll be explicit. I am graphing the location of 15
objects numbered 1 to 15.

plot(Length ~ Width, data=infiltration1, col="blue", xlab = "Width (cm)",
ylab = "Length (m)", xlim=c(0,200), ylim=c(0,30))

Now I would like the points on this graph, rather than dots to be numbers corresponding to the object it represents. Is there any way to "access" the
object number from my data to use as in lieu of points?

Thanks again.

Hi Hippien Dream

If I understood, the code below may help you.

x<-runif(20)
y<-rnorm(20)

df<-data.frame(cbind(x,y))

par(mfrow=c(1,2))
plot(y~x, data=df)

plot(y~x, data=df, type="n")
text(df$x, df$y, "o.o")

I am trying to produce a simple plot where the points in the plot are actually integers from my data. That is, I am making a length/width plot
and
I would like the points, rather dots or triangles, appear as different numbers corresponding to a column in my data. I have tried using this:

...,pch="column title"

but this merely returns the first letter of the column title, B. Is there
any way to do this?

I am using R 2.7.1 and Ubuntu 8.04. Thanks.
