[R] Three plots with logged X-axis in the same plot

[John Kane]

Okay so you do want independent panels. 

When I asked for sample data it does not have to be anything real. All we need is something that has a similar data structure. We can do the same type of graph with earhquake data, medical data or  voter response.  

Just substite random names for the med terms and use a random number generator for the meaurements.  This , length of vectors in different matrices or dataframes, etc are the crucial bits of information. The actual data is really immaterial.

For example here are two different data structures with the "almost the same data but in different formats and with an important difference between dat1$aa and dat2$aa.  

 dat1  <-  structure(list(aa = structure(1:5, .Label = c("a", "b", "c", 
"d", "e"), class = "factor"), bb = c(-0.00582694254724667, -0.716808619114487, 
0.0333078304958157, 0.382137504304074, -1.07626847615088)), .Names = c("aa", 
"bb"), row.names = c(NA, -5L), class = "data.frame")
  
  dat2  <- structure(list(aa = c("a", "b", "c", "d", "e"), bb = c(0.149330272058851, 
0.4024610008935, -1.10212110787262, -0.603049153794929, 0.894804687148742
)), .Names = c("aa", "bb"))

  str(dat1)
  str(dat2)
