[R] plotting with a symbol on every nth point

[Carl Witthoft]

If you just want the same symbol at each point, you could use Weylandt's 
approach, tho' personally I think it's tidier to create a new vector

x10 <- x[seq(1,length(x),by=10)]  and plot that.

If you would like a different symbol at each point, then take a look at 
?text.

Try something like this:

plot(x,type="o", pch = c(5,rep(NA,9)))

for, e.g., every 10th point.
