\title{
  Plotting Two y-Axes
}
\description{
  Line plot with y-axes on both left and right side.
}
\usage{
plotyy(x, y1, y2, grid = TRUE, box.col = "grey",
                  type = "l", lwd = 1, lty = 1,
                  col.y1 = "navy", col.y2 = "maroon", ...)
}
\arguments{
    \item{x}{the common x-coordinates for both curves}
    \item{y1, y2}{the y-values, with ordinates y1 left, y2 right.}
    \item{grid}{logical; shall a grid be plotted.}
    \item{box.col}{color of surrounding box.}
    \item{type}{type of the curves, line or points (for both data).}
    \item{lwd}{line width (for both data).}
    \item{lty}{line type (for both data).}
    \item{col.y1, col.y2}{colors to be used for the lines or points.}
    \item{...}{additional plotting parameters.}
}
\details{
  Plots \code{y1} versus \code{x} with y-axis labeling on the left and plots
  \code{y2} versus \code{x} with y-axis labeling on the right.

  The x-values are common for the moment. To exclude certain points, use
  \code{NA} values. Both curves will be line or point plots, and have the
  same line type and width.
}
\value{
  Generates a graph, no return values.
