R plot doesn't work on my Windows, but plot.default does

[dan.john]

Hi guys,

I'm doing an R course as part of a data engineering master's and I'm struggling to get the demo ("graphics") to run as expected.

I created a stack overflow question here:

R plot doesn't work on my Windows, but plot.default does

...with pictures and a detailed explanation. Does anyone here know what might be the problem? I'm missing class because the data visualisation just isn't stable and though I have a Mac too which I guess would work better, I really hate to switch devices and not fixing the problem.

Many thanks,
Daniel

Please do not just drop a link to a SO question, it is against our cross-posting policy.

FAQ: Is it OK if I cross-post?

Posting the same question both here and on other sites Posting the same question to multiple forums at the same time is often considered impolite. We don't completely ban such cross-posting, but we ask you to think hard before you do it and to follow some rules. Cross-post sparingly Rather than post the same thing here and elsewhere from the get-go, post in one place at a time. Let enough time go by (think days, not hours) before you take your question somewhere else. Sometimes people at another site may suggest you post here if your question doesn't fit within the scope of the other site. Always link to your other posts, and update everywhere with any solution…

I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to offend anyone. I hadn't read the faq or the policy. It's just that I already had that question written n SO when I discovered your community and i hadn't seen much activity on the original post and thought to try here where there is a higher concentration of R experts.
