R help - Jun 2004 - plotting with an its object

Dear R People:

I have an its object.  The original its is the Dow Jones Industrial average 
from March 23, 1990 to March 23, 2000.  I did the following;

dj1 = original series
>dj2 <- log(dj1)
>ddj2 <- diff(dj2)
>
Ok so far.
Now I would like to plot this series with a certain y
limit:
>min(ddj2)
[1] -0.07454905
>max(ddj2)
[1] 0.04860535
>plot(ddj2,ylim=c(-0.1,0.1))
Error in plot.default(x, y, xaxt = "n", xlab = xlab, axes = axes,
frame.plot
= frame.plot,  :
        formal argument "ylim" matched by multiple actual
arguments
>
What is wrong, please?

I checked the following:
        formal argument "ylim" matched by multiple actual
arguments
>?plot.its
Error in help("plot.its") : No documentation for `plot.its' in
specified
packages and libraries:
  you could try `help.search("plot.its")'
>its.plot
Error: Object "its.plot" not found
>?its.plot
Error in help("its.plot") : No documentation for `its.plot' in
specified
packages and libraries:
  you could try `help.search("its.plot")'
>
but to no avail.

R Version 1.9.1 for Windows

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Sincerely,
Laura

Try using yrange instead of ylim.

getAnywhere("plotIts") will get you the source of the routine you are
looking for.
