- _V_a_l_u_e:
-
- This function is invoked for its side effects, which is
- to add one or more straight lines through the current
- plot. The first form above specifies the line in
- intercept/slope form (alternatively a can be specified
- on its own and is taken to contain the slope and inter-
- cept in vector form). The h= and v= forms draw hor-
- izontal and vertical lines at the specified coordi-
- nates. The coef form specifies the line by a vector
- containing the slope and intercept. reg is a regres-
- sion object which contains reg$coef. If it is of
- length 1 then the value is taken to be the slope of a
- line through the origin, otherwise, the first 2 values
- are taken to be the slope and intercept.
-
- The graphical parameters col and lty can be specified
- as arguments to abline; see par for details.
