R help - Jul 2003 - Plotting math functions

Hi all,
I was wondering whether it is possible to plot math functions, for 
example sin, cos or a Gaussian type function, in R, and if so, how to 
do it. I have been searching through the archives and the R manual but 
had no luck in finding any hints on how to go about this.
Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks, Jonck

also maybe:
?plot

Examples:
	...
     plot(sin, -pi, 2*pi)

You can use

  plot(sin, from=-10, to=10)

This calls plot.function; look at ?plot.function to read about the
options.
