There's no similar points method, nor a lines method, so in those cases you get the default method, namely to plot the table values (all ones) against the *index*, i.e.,1:n. This shows the effect quite clearly:
plot(table(x^2) lines(table(x)) (This is not a bug, since noone has promised you that lines and point methods should exist. It could be taken as an enhancement request.) > ______________________________________________ > R-devel@r-project.org mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel > -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Øster Farimagsgade 5, Entr.B c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics PO Box 2099, 1014 Cph.
