21 ## If F is the CDF of the distribution @var{dist} with parameters |
|
|
22 ## @var{params} and G its inverse, and @var{x} a sample vector of length |
|
|
23 ## @var{n}, the QQ-plot graphs ordinate @var{s}(@var{i}) = @var{i}-th |
|
|
24 ## largest element of x versus abscissa @var{q}(@var{i}f) = G((@var{i} - |
|
|
25 ## 0.5)/@var{n}). |
|
3200
|
26 ## |
|
|
27 ## If the sample comes from F except for a transformation of location |
|
|
28 ## and scale, the pairs will approximately follow a straight line. |
|
|
29 ## |
|

|
30 ## The default for @var{dist} is the standard normal distribution. The |
|
|
31 ## optional argument @var{params} contains a list of parameters of |
|
|
32 ## @var{dist}. For example, for a quantile plot of the uniform |
|
|
33 ## distribution on [2,4] and @var{x}, use |
|
|
34 ## |
|
|
35 ## @example |
|
|
36 ## qqplot (x, "uniform", 2, 4) |
|
|
37 ## @end example |

|
|
39 ## If no output arguments are given, the data are plotted directly. |
