## Add an Axis to a Plot

## Usage

    axis(side, at, labels=TRUE, ...)

## Arguments

`side` | an integer specifying which side of the plot the axis is to be drawn on.
`at` | the points at which tick-marks are to be drawn.
`labels` | this can either be a logical value specifying whether (numerical) annotations are to be made at the tickmarks, or a vector of character strings to be placed at the tickpoints.
`...` | graphical parameters may also be passed as aruments to this function.

## Value

This function is invoked for its side effect, which is to add an axis to an already existing plot. The axis is placed as follows: 1=below, 2=left, 3=above and 4=right.

## Examples

    plot(1:4, rnorm(4), axes=FALSE)
    axis(1, 1:4, LETTERS[1:4])
    axis(2)
    box() #- to make it look "as usual"

    ##-- This still fails in older versions of R :
    plot(1:7, rnorm(7), type = 's', xaxt='n', col = 'red')
    axis(1, 1:7, LETTERS[1:7], col.axis = 'blue')
