plotLfit: Plot distributions fitted with L-moments

In extremeStat: Extreme Value Statistics and Quantile Estimation

Plot distributions fitted with L-moments

Description

Plot histogram and distribution densities or ecdf with cumulated probability

Usage

plotLfit(
  dlf,
  nbest = 5,
  selection = NULL,
  order = TRUE,
  rmse = 4,
  cdf = FALSE,
  log = FALSE,
  supportends = TRUE,
  breaks = 20,
  xlim = extendrange(dlf$dat, f = 0.15),
  ylim = NULL,
  col = "grey",
  main = paste(if (cdf) "Cumulated", "density distributions of", dlf$datname),
  xlab = dlf$datname,
  ylab = if (cdf) "(Empirical) Cumulated Density (CDF)" else
    "Probability Density Function (PDF)",
  las = 1,
  distcols = berryFunctions::rainbow2(nbest),
  lty = 1,
  add = FALSE,
  logargs = NULL,
  legend = TRUE,
  legargs = NULL,
  histargs = NULL,
  ...
)

Arguments

dlf	List as returned by distLfit, containing the elements dat, parameter, gof, datname
nbest	Number of distributions plotted, in order of goodness of fit. DEFAULT: 5
selection	Names of distributions in dlf$parameter that will be drawn. Overrides nbest. DEFAULT: NULL
order	Logical: order legend and colors by RMSE, even if dlf$gof is unordered or selection is given? DEFAULT: TRUE
rmse	Integers. If rmse != 0, RMSE values are added to legend. They are rounded to rmse digits. DEFAULT: 4
cdf	If TRUE, plot cumulated DF instead of probability density. DEFAULT: FALSE
log	If TRUE, logAxis is called. Only makes sense if dlf$dat is already logarithmic and ranges eg. from -2 to 3. DEFAULT: FALSE
supportends	If TRUE, dots are placed at the support bounds. DEFAULT: TRUE
breaks	hist breaks. DEFAULT: 20
xlim, ylim	hist or ecdf axis limits.
col	hist bar color or ecdf point color. DEFAULT: "grey"
main, xlab, ylab	hist or ecdf main, xlab, ylab. DEFAULT: abstractions from dlf$datname
las	Label Axis Style for orientation of numbers along axes. DEFAULT: 1
distcols	Color for each distribution added with lines. DEFAULT: rainbow2
lty	Line TYpe for plotted distributions. Recycled vector of length nbest. DEFAULT: 1
add	If TRUE, hist/ecdf is not called before adding lines. This lets you add lines highly customized one by one. DEFAULT: FALSE
logargs	List of arguments passed to logAxis if log=TRUE. DEFAULT: NULL
legend	Should legend be called? DEFAULT: TRUE
legargs	List of arguments passed to legend except for legend and col. DEFAULT: NULL
histargs	List of arguments passed to hist or ecdf except for x, freq. DEFAULT: NULL
...	Further arguments passed to lines, like type, pch, ...

Details

By default, this plots density instead of CDF, because the distributions are easier to discern and tail behavior is easier to judge visually.
