n2mfrow {grDevices} | R Documentation |
Easy setup for plotting multiple figures (in a rectangular layout) on
one page. This computes a sensible default for
par(mfrow)
.
n2mfrow(nr.plots)
nr.plots |
integer; the number of plot figures you'll want to draw. |
A length two integer vector nr, nc
giving the number of rows
and columns, fulfilling nr >= nc >= 1
and nr * nc >= nr.plots
.
