[R] clock24.plot/radial plot

[Ogbos Okike]

Dear All,
I am trying to generate a circular/radial plot. The script below has a
result I am looking for:
testlen<-rnorm(24)*2+5
 testpos<-0:23+rnorm(24)/4
 clock24.plot(testlen,testpos,main="Test Clock24 (lines)",show.grid=FALSE,
  line.col="green",lwd=3)
 if(dev.interactive()) par(ask=TRUE)
 # now do a 'daylight' plot
 oldpar<-clock24.plot(testlen[7:19],testpos[7:19],
  main="Test Clock24 daytime (symbols)",
  point.col="blue",rp.type="s",lwd=3)
 # reset everything
 par(oldpar)

I tried to play with the script to work with my data. I read my data:
swe<-scan("onedaydata",list(dates="",time="",count=""))
dates<-swe$dates
times<-swe$time
count<-swe$count.
I tried to replace testlen<-rnorm(24)*2+5 with testlen<-count and
oldpar<-clock24.plot(testlen[7:19],testpos[7:19], with
oldpar<-clock24.plot(testlen[0:23],testpos[0:23], but nothing worked.

A sample of the plot I want is attached. My data is quite large.
Thanks for your time.
