You might also want to try "density", since it can theoretically have non-zero bins, since it doesn't use "bins". For example, take a Weibull distribution, which could look better with a log y-axis:
x <- rweibull(1000,1,5) par(mfrow=c(2,1)) plot(density(x,from=0)) rug(x) plot(density(x,from=0),log="y") rug(x) you may need to fiddle with the "bw" (bandwidth) parameter of "density", since this controls the smoothness of the kernel (see ?density). +mt ______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
