PlotDepMetrics

Produces plots of several dependent METRIC variables on the same scale. The metric variables are specified as COLUMNS of a data.frame DFR Available TYPEs are Ecdf, Dens, Boxplot, Stripchart as in PlotMetricBySplit.

PlotDepMetrics(DFR, COLUMNS, TYPE = "Ecdf", SCALE = "ID",
  MLAB = NULL, SPLITNAMES = NULL, MLIM = NULL, UNIT = NULL,
  MAIN = NULL, NVALID = T, COL = NULL, DRAW_STEPS = F, ADJ = 1,
  METHOD = "jitter", NPRETTY = 8, ...)

Arguments

DFR	data frame
COLUMNS	colnames of dependent metric variables to be plotted
TYPE	="Ecdf chooses between "Ecdf", "Dens", "Boxplot", "Stripchart"
SCALE	="ID" chooses a ScaleTransformation ID, POWER_Z, LOG10, LOGIT
MLAB	=NULL optional, otherwise derived from call METRIC
SPLITNAMES	=NULL optional names instead of COLUMNS for metric variables;
MLIM	=NULL optional ON THE ORIGINAL SCALE, otherwise derived from pretty
UNIT	=NULL if SCALE ="ID" AND diff(MLIM) divisable by UNIT plot interval will have UNIT based ticks
MAIN	= NULL plot title via main=
NVALID	=T logical switch whether to show number of valid observations per SPLIT group
COL	=NULL colours for the levels of Split - otherwise 2:(G+1)
DRAW_STEPS	=F Set to TRUE for drawing the ecdf steps in full
ADJ	=1 Density smoothing parameter relative to density standard
METHOD	="jitter" METHOD for stripchart
NPRETTY	=8 influences approximate number of labels when using ID or POWER_Z (cf. base pretty)
...	further parameters for scale transformations can be provided via ... Z specifies the power to use with POWER_Z when using POWER_Z PERCENT =F Use percent instead of proportions in LOGIT when using LOGIT

Value

Generates a plot.
