New to R, and didn't find the following in the docs.

Main use for R. to get feet wet, is to pipe in x,y,z data, one point
per line, and
plot it in 3d, like this:

{
echo 1,2,3
echo 2,4,6
...
} | R ...

But functions like contour

contour() needs a (equally spaced) matrix to plot contour lines.
For plotting a point cloud see, e.g., packages lattice (function cloud()), rgl, and scatterplot3d.

Because it makes no sense to reorder rows and columns of the matrix z.

Also, I am curious whether any Lisp person has ever written a front
end to R that translates Lisp syntax to R.  e.g. (countour x y f) ->
contour(x,y,f).

Thanks.
