[R] profile plot in R

Hi:

Typically a profile plot is a plot over time for each of n subjects
(aka a 'spaghetti plot'). Here's a revision of your code to yield a
profile plot in ggplot2, although it's not clear for what the grouping
variable is meant.

sampledata= matrix(c(1.002, 1.76, 0.67, 0.99, 1.38, 1.0, 0.5, 0.78,
                                   1.003,0.57, 0.99, 0.58, 0.76, 1.23,
1.45, .78,
                                  1.43, 1.34, 1.0, 0.9), ncol = 5,
                                  dimnames = list(c("cond1", "cond2",
"cond3", "cond4"),
                                                           c("col1",
"col2", "col3", "col4", "col5")))
sdata <- melt(sampledata)   # melt method for matrices
sdata$grp <- factor(c('grp1', 'grp1', 'grp2', 'grp3'))
sdata$time <- rep(1:5, each = 4)

library(ggplot2)
h <- ggplot(sdata, aes(time, value))
h + geom_point(aes(colour = cond), size = 2.5) +
      geom_line(aes(colour = cond), size = 1)

Hope this is enough to get you started...
