r - Why does plot not respect add = TRUE? -


why r's base plot function this? have use points or lines, needs special code rather using type argument. 

plot(1:10) plot(10:1, add = true) warning messages: 1: in plot.window(...) : "add" not graphical parameter 2: in plot.xy(xy, type, ...) : "add" not graphical parameter 3: in axis(side = side, @ = at, labels = labels, ...) :

etc.

many packages provide methods (i.e. "override") plot , provide obvious ability plot(obj, add = true) long obj of appropriate class. (examples sp, raster, spatstat.)

is there reason plot.default not already?

edit: discussed @ length here:

dm answers here: http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/r/e4/devel/08/03/0734.html

because plot.default doesn't have add argument

> args(plot.default) function (x, y = null, type = "p", xlim = null, ylim = null,      log = "", main = null, sub = null, xlab = null, ylab = null,      ann = par("ann"), axes = true, frame.plot = axes, panel.first = null,      panel.last = null, asp = na, ...)  null

those other functions not overriding plot providing own methods, have argument add because written way. personally, having grown using points() , lines() etc don't find them work , use them in preference plot method add argument, although we've written both ways in packages contribute to.

as why plot.default doesn't have add argument? you'd have ask r core, can suggest reasons

  1. plot.default designed generate entire plot on device
  2. there points() , lines() etc why duplicate?
  3. plot.default simpler code without code handle add
  4. backwards compatibility s/s-plus

c# - Send Image in Json : 400 Bad request -

from android trying send image class of data, iis webservice. (c#) the problem 400 bad request . the image being encoded base64 . , placed json rest of class elements. my guess base64 not valid inside json. server not understand it. if set string "" , post accepted fine. so question is, how make base64 valid within json array? ( tried url.encode no success). or how should send image android webservice? gson gson = new gson(); string json = gson.tojson(record); // record has param { string base64photo } how big image? i'm pretty sure surpassing iis json size limit (default 4 mb). check http://geekswithblogs.net/frankw/archive/2008/08/05/how-to-configure-maxjsonlength-in-asp.net-ajax-applications.aspx or http://www.webtrenches.com/post.cfm/iis7-file-upload-size-limits good luck!
