Dear all,  
I have problem to plot figures using the package “Plot”. For example, when I run

```julia
Pkg.add("Gadfly")
using Gadfly
plot([1,2,3])

```

an error messeger appers:

```julia
julia> plot([1,2,3])
ERROR: UndefVarError: plot not defined
Stacktrace:
 [1] top-level scope at none:0

```

Could anyone help me please?

With

```julia
using Gadfly

```

you are using Gadfly, not Plots ;-).

Try

```julia
plot(y = [1,2,3])

```
