I know real R coders will chuckle but I've taken to using semicolons just because it looks better to my eyes and let's my brain know where I think lines end. True, the language isn't checking for them but it keeps my typing consistent with the only other language I program in. (EasyLanguage) plot(cumsum(T1$PL_SUM) ~ T1$MyDate, typ="l"); lines(cumsum(Z1$PL_SUM) ~ Z1$MyDate, typ="l", col="green"); lines(cumsum(Z2$PL_SUM) ~ Z2$MyDate, typ="l", col="red"); lines(cumsum(Z3$PL_SUM) ~ Z3$MyDate, typ="l", col="purple"); While it's not supported today, maybe one day there could be a way it was? Who knows...
