Dear Tim,

Have a look at the ggplot2 package.

library(ggplot2)
ggplot(your.data.frame, aes(x = EducationYears, y = Income, colour Registered))
+ geom_point()

You find a lot of examples at the ggplot2 website:

HTH,

To call in the statistician after the experiment is done may be no more
than asking him to perform a post-mortem examination: he may be able to
say what the experiment died of.

The plural of anecdote is not data.

The combination of some data and an aching desire for an answer does not
ensure that a reasonable answer can be extracted from a given body of
data.

Does anybody know how to adding colors to data points in scatter plot in
R?

I have the following R data frame -

Voter_Name, Education_years, Income, Registered Ricky, 18, 40000, Y
Lisa, 20, 34000, N Jon, 10, 35000, Y ...

I am doing a scatter plot in R for those data points - Income vs.
EducationYears.

I would also like to using different colors to differentiate whether
that data point is a Registered Voter or not.

Does anybody know how to adding colors to data points in scatter plot in
R?

Thanks in advance!!
