stepfun.hist: Create a probability density step function from a histogram...

In ConnMatTools: Tools for Working with Connectivity Data

Description

This function creates a step function from the bars in a histogram object. By default, the step function will be normalized so that it integrates to 1.

Usage

stepfun.hist(h, ..., normalize = TRUE)

Arguments

h	an object of type histogram
...	Additional arguments for the default stepfun function.
normalize	Boolean indicating whether or not to normalize the output stepfun so that it integrates to 1. Defaults to TRUE. If FALSE, then the function will integrate to sum(h$counts)

Value

A function of class stepfun. The height of the steps will be divided by the distance between breaks and possibly the total count.
