boxplot {compositions}R Documentation

Displaying compositions and amounts by boxplots

Description

For the different interpretations of amount data a different type of boxplot is feasible. Thus different boxplots are drawn.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'acomp':
boxplot(x,fak=NULL,...,
                         xlim=x.lim,ylim=c(minq,maxq),log=TRUE,
                         panel=vp.logboxplot,dots=!boxes,boxes=TRUE)
## S3 method for class 'rcomp':
boxplot(x,fak=NULL,...,
                         xlim=x.lim,ylim=c(0,1),log=FALSE,
                         panel=vp.boxplot,dots=!boxes,boxes=TRUE)
## S3 method for class 'aplus':
boxplot(x,fak=NULL,...,log=TRUE)
## S3 method for class 'rplus':
boxplot(x,fak=NULL,...,ylim=c(0,max(x)),log=FALSE)
vp.boxplot(x,y,...,dots=FALSE,boxes=TRUE,xlim,ylim,log,notch=FALSE) 
vp.logboxplot(x,y,...,dots=FALSE,boxes=TRUE,xlim,ylim,log,notch=FALSE) 
          

Arguments

x a dataset
fak a factor to split the dataset, not yet implemented in aplus and rplus
xlim x-limits of the plot
ylim y-limits of the plot
log logical indicating whether ploting should be done on log scale
panel the panel function to be used or a list of multiple panel functions
... further graphical parameters
dots a logical indicating whether the points should be drawn
boxes a logical indicating the boxes should be drawn
y used by pairs
notch should the boxes be notched

Details

vp.boxplot and vp.logboxplot are only used as panel functions.
