| rug {graphics} | R Documentation | 
Adds a rug representation (1-d plot) of the data to the plot.
rug(x, ticksize = 0.03, side = 1, lwd = 0.5, col = par("fg"),
    quiet = getOption("warn") < 0, ...)
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.  Some devices will round the
default width up to   | 
col | 
 The colour the ticks are plotted in.  | 
quiet | 
 logical indicating if there should be a warning about clipped values.  | 
... | 
 further arguments, passed to   | 
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, but non-finite values are
omitted silently.
