Dear R Users,

I want to do a line plot of the value of Amazon 'Sum' (in this case, 68348.4)
for each of the 12 data frames. I've tried doing this as follows:
plot(FeketeJAN[1,2], FeketeFEB[1,2], FeketeMAR[1,2], *through to December*
type="l")
but receive: Error in strsplit(log, NULL) : non-character argument
I've also tried:
plot(FeketeJAN$AMAZON[,2], FeketeFEB$AMAZON[,2], *through to December* type="l")
but receive:
Error in plot.window(...) : need finite 'xlim' values
In addition: Warning messages:
1: In min(x) : no non-missing arguments to min; returning Inf
2: In max(x) : no non-missing arguments to max; returning -Inf
3: In min(x) : no non-missing arguments to min; returning Inf
4: In max(x) : no non-missing arguments to max; returning -Inf
What is it that I'm doing wrong?!
Well, beside the infelicity of having 12 data.frames to represent one
year, your need to make a vector of those values as in:
plot(c(FeketeJAN[1,2], FeketeFEB[1,2], FeketeMAR[1,2], *through to
December* ), type="l")

Many thanks for any advice,
