Description

Creates a 2-d scatterplot with a third variable plotted on a color ramp

Usage

dotsplot.rgb(x, y, z, ramp = "gr", pch = 16, add = F, legend = T,
  cex = 1, neut = 0.5, legend.title = NULL, invert = F, xlab = "",
  ylab = "", main = "", ...)

Arguments

x

X-coordinate vector

y

Y-coordinate vector

z

vector of values to use for the color ramp

ramp

Type of color ramp to use, essentially possible ramps from red, green, and blue. Possible values are "gr" (default), "rg", "gb", "bg", "br", "rb", "r", "g", "b", "rr", "gg", "bb"

pch

Point character to use (defaults to 16, or solid circles)

add

A value of TRUE adds the points to an active plot, rather than creating a new one

legend

A value of FALSE suppresses the legend

cex

Universal character expansion factor for plotting (between 0 and 1)

neut

An RGB value (between 0 and 1) for the neutral color(s), those not used on the rgb ramp. It might take a little twiddling.

legend.title

Title for the legend

invert

A value of TRUE inverts the current color ramp

...

xlab, ylab, and main work like usual
