title: How do I scale axes in a scatterplot in R?
body: <p>I have a table in R, but the scale of the x- and y-axis is not desirable. How would I scale the x- and y-axis to even out the points on the chart?</p>
  
  <p>I have two values which I want to plot.</p>
  
  <pre><code>p2
  [1]     0.061     0.380     1.000
  [4]     3.880   140.900   861.460
  [7]  7107.180 27262.082 61585.560
  
  a3
  [1]     0.058     0.378     1.000
  [4]     3.540   140.810   867.910
  [7]  7057.800 27155.500 61354.900
  
  plot( 
        p2, 
        a3, 
        main="p2 vs a3", 
        pch=20, 
        type="o" 
    )
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The code above gives me the following plot</p>

  <p>How would I go about to manipulate the values and scale so that the first couple of values are more prevalent, and presents the plot as a curve rather than a straight line.
  Something more like this:</p>
