[R] "lag1.plot {astsa}" vs. "lag.plot {stats}"

2015-04-17 Thread Paul Domaskis
I'm following http://www.stat.pitt.edu/stoffer/tsa3/R_toot.htm to ramp up on both time series and R. About 40% of the way down, the tutorial uses lag1.plot from astsa and lag.plot from stats. The positioning of the dots look different between the two. Nothing jumps out at me from the help pages

[R] vi[m] editing of past commands in R command line

2015-04-17 Thread Paul Domaskis
