library(grid) # need this for graphs
library(srs)
data(srs)
srs.sorted <- sortByGPA(srs)
plot(srs.sorted)
srs10 <- subset.srs(srs.sorted, 1:10)
plot(srs10)

The input data for read.srs() must follow a format exactly like the following. (Indentation can be either whitespace or tabs, but it is manditory.)
