A similar question has been asked here. But it is concerned with the scatter plot. I want to achieve the same with simple line plot. I know there are solutions for drawing multicolored line but I'm not interested in that.

I want something like below where maxima and minima are clearly distinguishable by color:

Expection

In this stackoverflow answer provides a very close solution however it is not generic, it works on predefined functions, does not work on dataset.

In R it is doable using ggplot2 (Source)

Is there any way to achieve this?

    What's wrong with scatter? If you really just don't like the name, you could always rename `plot=scatter`... – jyalim Feb 16 '19 at 17:24
  • @HAL9001, I want continuous line, not just discrete points. – tachyon Feb 16 '19 at 17:26

  • The question I marked as duplicate encodes `x` as color. I suppose it's obvious how to use `y` instead. – ImportanceOfBeingErnest Feb 16 '19 at 18:44
