R help - Mar 2005 - Plotting several series on one set of axes

Dear All,

I am rather rusty with my R, but I recall being able to do something like
plot(x1,...);plot(x2,add=TRUE,...)
to plot two series on the same axes.

Any suggestions how this may be done will be appreciated.

If you have several series with common axes, you can use matplot() and
do it with a single function call.

See ?matplot for more information.

You can use ts.plot to plot multiple ts time series on one set of
axes in one command (even if they have different time bases though
they must have the same frequency). See ?ts.plot

zoo can represent series as irregular so that even ones with 
different frequencies can be simultaneously plotted on the same
axes in one command. See library(zoo)l; help(plot.zoo)
