Dear Friends, I would like to ask for help. I am plotting monthly data as seasonal by adding particular months but I am getting an unexpected graph. What I want is why and what can be another alternative? Here is the data and R script busoro <- read.csv("G:/Fredo/PAPER/Malaria climate paper/data/NYANZA DATA/busoro2.csv", header=T) # x axis y = 2012:2017 #plot plot(y,busoro[,"Sep"] + busoro[,"Oct"] + busoro [,"Nov"] + busoro[,"Dec"],type="b", ylab="Malaria Cases",xlab="Year") grid(10,10,lwd=2) dput((head(busoro)))structure(list(X = 2012:2017, Jan = c(73L, 754L, 1016L, 2651L, 1201L, 3405L), Feb = c(129L, 959L, 1276L, 3917L, 1262L, 3715L ), Mar = c(238L, 770L, 1670L, 3975L, 1379L, 3571L), Apr = c(705L, 875L, 1117L, 3549L, 1021L, 2789L), May = c(915L, 1034L, 1379L, 3092L, 2091L, 3487L), Jun = c(985L, 741L, 1612L, 4351L, 1599L, 1662L), Jul = c(402L, 115L, 901L, 3394L, 623L, 817L), Aug = c(337L, 218L, 966L, 1002L, 732L, 755L), Sep = c(353L, 580L, 2284L, 2427L, 2033L, 1134L), Oct = c(1016L, 1243L, 2788L, 3571L, 2940L, 1763L ), Nov = c(682L, 1336L, 2229L, 2730L, 2866L, 1469L), Dec = c(641L, 1049L, 1701L, 1380L, 2153L, 1321L)), .Names = c("X", "Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun", "Jul", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec"), row.names = c(NA, 6L), class = "data.frame") Thanks in advance.

Hi Frederic, You are asking for the sum of cases in the months September to December for the years 2012 to 2017. I get a plot that shows that from: plot(busoro[,"X"],busoro[,"Sep"] + busoro[,"Oct"] + busoro [,"Nov"] + busoro[,"Dec"],type="b",ylab="Malaria Cases",xlab="Year") What sort of plot were you expecting?

Dear Jim, I am asking the sum of malaria cases from Sep to Dec. I am also getting the plot but which has false values. After going through them, I found that the script is giving the right results. Thanks alot. Frederic Ntirenganya Nyanza District, Data Mnager.
