chart.Scatter: wrapper to draw scatter plot with sensible defaults

In PerformanceAnalytics: Econometric Tools for Performance and Risk Analysis

Description

Draws a scatter chart. This is another chart "primitive", since it only contains a set of sensible defaults.

Usage

chart.Scatter(
  x,
  y,
  reference.grid = TRUE,
  main = "Title",
  ylab = NULL,
  xlab = NULL,
  xlim = NULL,
  ylim = NULL,
  colorset = 1,
  symbolset = 1,
  element.color = "darkgray",
  cex.axis = 0.8,
  cex.legend = 0.8,
  cex.lab = 1,
  cex.main = 1,
  ...
)

Arguments

x	data for the x axis, can take matrix,vector, or timeseries
y	data for the y axis, can take matrix,vector, or timeseries
reference.grid	if true, draws a grid aligned with the points on the x and y axes
main	set the chart title, same as in plot
ylab	set the y-axis label, as in plot
xlab	set the x-axis label, as in plot
xlim	set the x-axis limit, same as in plot
ylim	set the y-axis limit, same as in plot
colorset	color palette to use, set by default to rational choices
symbolset	from pch in plot, submit a set of symbols to be used in the same order as the data sets submitted
element.color	provides the color for drawing chart elements, such as the box lines, axis lines, etc. Default is "darkgray"
cex.axis	The magnification to be used for axis annotation relative to the current setting of 'cex', same as in plot.
cex.legend	The magnification to be used for sizing the legend relative to the current setting of 'cex'.
cex.lab	The magnification to be used for x- and y-axis labels relative to the current setting of 'cex'
cex.main	The magnification to be used for the main title relative to the current setting of 'cex'.
...	any other passthru parameters

Note

Most inputs are the same as "plot" and are principally included so that some sensible defaults could be set.
