In asbio: A Collection of Statistical Tools for Biologists

Venn probability diagrams for an event with two outcomes

Description

The user specifies the probabilities of two outcomes, and if applicable, their intersection. A Venn diagram is returned. The universe, S, will generally not have unit area, but in many applications will be a good approximation. The area of the intersection will also be an approximation.

Usage

Venn(A, B, AandB = 0, labA = "A", labB = "B", cex.text = .95, ...)

Venn.tck()

Arguments

A	Probability of event A
B	Probability of event B
AandB	Probability of the intersection of A and B
labA	Label assigned to event A in the diagram
labB	Label assigned to event B in the diagram
cex.text	Character expansion for text.
...	Additional arguments from plot

Value

A Venn diagram is returned.
