R script

edit

I can't make the R script work for any of the other parties except for ACT. There must be something wrong with the data in the table for ther other parties. I can see that some have blanks, which probably aren't coming through as zeroes, but I can't see why it won't graph the Maori party for me. So if we did want the NZ First line on the chart, we would need a new and/or improved R script from Trevva. The loess smoother lines for ACT as so small as to be almost invisible; their line doesn't approach the Greens, of course, but would probably be entwined with NZ First, Maori Party and others.

Figured it out, on my final "if this doesn't work, I don't know what I'll do" attempt. Not a blanks-in-the-data error, but spaces in the party names. Change to "NZFirst" &c, and it works just fine. Ridcully Jack :(talk) 09:20, 13 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
