You could also set
par(mfrow=c(1,2))
before you run your code in R and then you would have them side by side if
that is what you want.

Hi all,
In case you are interested, here is a very helpful blog on LaTeX:
http://texblog.wordpress.com/. It has a post on how to use “minipage”,
which is how I was able to get figures to sit side by side:

When ! isn't enough, I also find that strategic placing of \clearpage can
help (usually right after the figure in question). If the figure
conveniently fills up the lower half of a page, for example, this trick
works well. It backfires if the figure doesn't fit on the current page,
though, because it leads to an unsightly almost entirely blank page in the
document.
Also, scaling the figure, using [scale=0.7] for example, can help squeeze
the figure in to a spot where before it was getting pushed down to another
page.

Hi class,
Does anyone know how to force figures in Latex into the place in your
document that you think they ought to be? They seem to have a mind of their
own. We’ve been able to move them around a little in our paper, and we’ve
gotten somewhere better than the default, but there must be a way to
manipulate them more. Is it possible to get a few of the figures to show up
side by side? Does anyone know of a good reference on this topic?
Thanks!
Rachel
