@Ivar Nesje - I was able to get the Pkg issue sorted out. Thanks
After entering this sequence of commands the error below comes up
using RDatasets
using Gadfly
set_default_plot_size(9inch , 9inch/golden);
plot(data("datasets","iris"),x="Sepal.Width",y="Sepal.Length",color="Species")
data not defined
at In[3]:4
I am not sure whether the plot command is part of the RDatasets and Gadfly
command. When I execute using RDatasets upto the set_default_plot_size
nothing happens. the 'data not defined ...' error appears only when I
execute the plot command. Is there some intermediate step I have missed out?
