manyboxplot: Boxplot-like figure for many groups

In broman: Karl Broman's R Code

Boxplot-like figure for many groups

Description

Boxplot-like figure for many groups, with lines connecting selected quantiles.

Usage

manyboxplot(
  x,
  probs = c(0.05, 0.1, 0.25),
  dotcol = "blue",
  linecol = c("black", "red", "green", "orange"),
  ...
)

Arguments

x	Matrix of data, with columns indicating the groups.
probs	Numeric vecotr of probabilities with values in [0,1). Quantiles will be symmetric, and the median will always be included.
dotcol	Color for median
linecol	Line colors, same length as probs
...	Additional graphics parameters

Details

Calculates quantiles of the columns of x and then plots dots or lines at median plus lines at a series of quantiles, using grayplot() for the actual plot.

Value

None.

Examples

mu <- c(rnorm(50, 0, 0.3), rnorm(50, 2, 0.3)) # vector of means
x <- t(matrix(rnorm(1000*100, mu), ncol=1000))
manyboxplot(x, c(0.05, 0.25), ylim=range(x),
           dotcol=c("blue","green")[(1:100 > 50) + 1],
           hlines=seq(-4, 6, by=2),
           vlines=c(1, seq(20, 100, by=20)))
