lets say I have these function and I want to have a graph on them y0=x^2 y1=x^3 Then I say this x=seq(0,10,length.out=100) plot(x,y0,y1,type="l") but R does not give me a graph. How would you do it? -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/To-make-a-graph-for-4-functions-tp4592941p4592941.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

How would you do it? >First of all, try your own code:> y0=x^2Error: object 'x' not found Unlike you've said, y0=x^2 is not a function. Functions in R look like this: y0 <- function(x) x^2 y1 <- function(x) x^3 This is chapter 10 of R-intro.pdf, "Writing your own functions". Also, use the help system. ?plot It will tell you that 'plot' plot x against y, not against two variables. plot(x, y0(x), type="l") lines(x, y1(x)) Or, use function 'curve'. curve(x^2, from=0, to=10, col="red") curve(x^3, from=0, to=10, col="blue", add=TRUE) And, please, read the manual above. It WILL save you time.

Thanks for your response. Now I have 3 functions for example y0<-function(x) x^2 y1<-function(x) x^3 y2<-function(x) x^5 t<-function(x) c(y0(x),y1(x),y2(x)) I want to plot this so I get 3 graphs in a diagram. How can I do this? plot(x,t(x),type="l") doesnt work. -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/To-make-a-graph-for-4-functions-tp4592941p4593316.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
Use curve() like Rui said.

How can I use the curve when I have a vector? How should the R code look like? -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/To-make-a-graph-for-4-functions-tp4592941p4593672.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
