+\arguments{
+\item{...}{The input arguments contain either return data or else mean and
+ standard deviation data. Accordingly, number of input arguments is either 3
+ or 4. In case there 3 input arguments, the mean and standard deviation of
+ data is computed from return data. See examples for details.
+returns Vector of daily geometric return data
+
+ mu Mean of daily geometric return data
+
+ sigma Standard deviation of daily geometric return data
+
+ cl VaR confidence level and must be a scalar
+
+ hp VaR holding period and must be a vector}

+\description{
+Plots the VaR of a portfolio against holding period assuming that P/L are
+normally distributed, for specified confidence level and holding period.

+\examples{
+# Computes VaR given P/L data
+   data <- runif(5, min = 0, max = .2)
+   NormalVaRPlot2DHP(returns = data, cl = .95, hp = 60:90)
