Hi Josh and David,
Problem solved.
Both following steps work.
1)
ToothGrowth
attach(ToothGrowth)
plot(dose,len) # this step is needed. Don't close the diagram.
Otherwise
following command won't work.
matrics=lm(len~dose)
abline(matrics)
Graph displayed
2)
ToothGrowth
attach(ToothGrowth)
plot(dose, len) # this step is needed. Don't close the diagram.
Otherwise
following command won't work.
abline(lm(len ~ dose, data = ToothGrowth))
Graph displayed
Well, it is *VERY BAD* style and error-prone practice nowadays,
to attach a data set.
[The only thing to attach() are save()d data *files*;
there it's often tidier to attach() instead of to load() ...]
I have not followed all the things you tried .. or did not try.
A much better way of achieving the above (and yes; *never* close
the graphics window within these) should be
plot (len ~ dose, data=ToothGrowth)
abline(lm(len ~ dose, data=ToothGrowth))
and you can see {if you use a fixed-width font in your e-mail,
it springs into your eyes}
how nicely the formula notation of graphics alings with
the same in models.
If the above two simple lines do not work correctly,
then your R environment is broken in some way,
and maybe first doing
rm(list = ls())
may help.

You cannot just use abline() on an empty graphic (well, you can but
you get an empty graph). Please actually run my code, it will create
a scatter plot, then add a line. Do not close the graphic device in
between.

Re: [R] An empty grey diagram
It looks like all the packages you should need are loaded. Does the call to plot() create a scatter plot correctly? abline() adds a line to the current plot so that device still needs to be open when you call abline() (which it should have been if you ran the code from my first email). If a graphic device does not start when you call plot() then your error is earlier and you may need to explicitly open one (as David suggested).

Does the call to plot() create a scatter plot correctly? abline() adds a line to the current plot so that device still needs to be open when you call abline() (which it should have been if you ran the code from my first email). If a graphic device does not start when you call plot() then your error is earlier and you may need to explicitly open one (as David suggested).
