 Think: where does R do this?

 Answer: zzz = 1:10 ; plot(zzz)  # look at the y axis.

 How did it do this? Look at the code. Type 'plot' without () and
there's the code. Somewhere in there you will see where it sets the Y
axis label, or "ylab".

 Then read and understand the help pages for those functions. What
happens if I do func(c(1,2,3,4))? What's the name of 'c(1,2,3,4)'?

 Its a good way to learn.
