Use matplot to plot the columns of one matrix against the columns of another (generate a new plot).
Use matlines or matpoints to add lines and points to the current plot.
Usage:
matplot(x, y, type = "p", lty = 1:5, lwd = 1, lend = par("lend"),
pch = NULL,
col = 1:6, cex = NULL, bg = NA,
xlab = NULL, ylab = NULL, xlim = NULL, ylim = NULL,
..., add = FALSE, verbose = getOption("verbose"))
matpoints(x, y, type = "p", lty = 1:5, lwd = 1, pch = NULL,
col = 1:6, ...)
matlines (x, y, type = "l", lty = 1:5, lwd = 1, pch = NULL,
col = 1:6, ...)
