Legends and Points

The legend function is used to add a legend to a plot. A specific coordinate can be given as the first two arguments, or else a symbolic location, such as topleft and center, can be given. The Roption[]pch option specifies a plotting symbol, and the first 25 (1:25) are shown on the plot below. Other symbols are available in the 32:255 range. The Roption[]lty is used to specify line types. The Roption[]col is used to specify colours.
