Hi Gundala, You have to reorder the points, like below: #(your code ...) g <- cbind(x,g.pdf)[order(x),] points(x=[,1],y=g[,2],type='l',col="red")

How can I resolve this problem? I specifically want to use the dgamma function with the learned parameter (alpha,beta). That's why I don't use this command: > lines(density(x),add=T, col="red") - Gundala Viswanath Jakarta - Indonesia ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. -------------------------------------------------------- This message w/attachments (message) may be privileged, confidential or proprietary, and if you are not an intended recipient, please notify the sender, do not use or share it and delete it.
