values = {0.5, 1.0, 2.0}; f[x_, y_] := x^2 + y Plot[{f[x, #]} & /@ values, {x, 0, 6}, PlotStyle -> {{Red}, {Blue}, {Yellow}}] thing = {f[x, #]} & /@ values Plot[thing, {x, 0, 6}, PlotStyle -> {{Red}, {Blue}, {Yellow}}] I'm trying to use map to generate a list of functions to plot and use PlotStyle to define the color and style of the plot. Unfortunately, it seems like there's a bug here. When map is used with Plot, it applies the first plotstyle to all the plots. I think the above is a good test case. The first plot only plots red. The second plot plots red, blue, and green as desired. Am I misunderstanding something about plot, map, or plot style? Or is this a bug? Jason
