[R] Overlay cdf

[Bill.Venables at csiro.au]

Here are some ideas you might like to consider

par(mar = c(5,4,2,4)+0.1, yaxs = "r")
Sample <- rgamma(1000,2.5,.8)
hist(Sample, main = "", freq = FALSE, ylim = c(0,1))

pu <- par("usr")[1:2]
x <- seq(pu[1], pu[2], len = 5000)
y <- pgamma(x, 2.5, 0.8)
par(new = TRUE)
plot(x, y, type = "l", axes = FALSE, ann = FALSE, col = "red")
lines(x, dgamma(x, 2.5, 0.8), col = "darkgreen")

axis(4, col = "red")
mtext(side = 4, text = "Cumulative probability", col = "red", line = 2.5)

x0 <- c(0, sort(Sample))
p0 <- 0:1000/1000
lines(x0, p0, type = "S", col = "blue")

Hi,
Is it possible to  overlay a cummulative distribution function on a
histogram of a gamma distribuition.

I have a gamma function 

Sample = rgamma(1000,2.5,.8)+1.5
hist(Sample)

regards
