[R] Retrieve specific y for a list of x on a ploted line

[camille rérolle]

Sorry for my bad explanation (french people don't speak english well ,
it is known). I  tried predict.smooth.spline and it's working.
The aim of this work was to extract the y for x=1, x=2, x=3 etc on the
ploted line.

Thank you for your time.
Best Regards

Camille REROLLE
