You can create multiple plots on the same page (plotting environment) using the command par(mfrow=(m, n))
, where m
is the number of rows and n
is the number of columns. Enter the following four vectors:
X <- c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) Y1 <- c(2, 4, 5, 7, 12, 14, 16) Y2 <- c(3, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12) Y3 <- c(1, 7, 3, 2, 2, 7, 9)
In this example, we set the plotting environment at two rows and two columns in order to produce four graphs together:
par(mfrow=c(2,2)) plot(X,Y1, pch = 1) plot(X,Y2, pch = 2) plot(X,Y2, pch = 15) plot(X,Y3, pch = 16)
Here is the resulting graph:
As expected, we have four graphs arranged in two rows and two columns.
Of course, you can vary the number of graphs by setting different numbers of rows and columns.
