## Draws a density curve

### Description

Draws a density curve along one of the sides of the current plotting region.

### Usage

    ## S3 method for class 'density'
    draw(object, side=1, height=0.2, offset=0, scale=c("absolute", "relative"), xtrim=NULL,
      xpd=TRUE, ...)

### Arguments

`side` | An `integer` specifying which side to draw along. See `mtext` for details.
`height` | A `numeric` scalar specifying the "height" of the curve, where height means the maximum height of the density. that is, how much the zero-density position should be shifted.
`scale` | A `character` specifying the scale of the curve, which can be either absolute or relative.
`xpd` | If `TRUE`, the curve is not clipped, cf. `par`.
`...` | Not used.
