Add a Rug to a Plot

Description

Adds a rug representation (1-d plot) of the data to the plot.

Usage

rug(x, ticksize=0.03, side=1, lwd=0.5)

Arguments

x A numeric vector
ticksize The length of the ticks making up the `rug'. Positive lengths give inwards ticks.
side On which side of the plot box the rug will be plotted. Normally 1 (bottom) or 3 (top).
lwd The line width of the ticks.

Details

Because of the way rug is implemented, only values of x that fall within the plot region are included. There will be a warning if any finite values are omitted, bu non-finite values are omitted silently.
