In ggpmisc: Miscellaneous Extensions to 'ggplot2'

#' Residuals from model fit as segments
#'
#' \code{stat_fit_deviations} fits a linear model and returns fitted values and
#' residuals ready to be plotted as segments.
#'
#' @param mapping The aesthetic mapping, usually constructed with
#'   \code{\link[ggplot2]{aes}}. Only needs to be set at the layer level if you
#'   are overriding the plot defaults.
#' @param data A layer specific dataset - only needed if you want to override
#'   the plot defaults.
#' @param geom The geometric object to use display the data
#' @param position The position adjustment to use for overlapping points on this
#'   layer
#' @param show.legend logical. Should this layer be included in the legends?
#'   \code{NA}, the default, includes if any aesthetics are mapped. \code{FALSE}
#'   never includes, and \code{TRUE} always includes.
#' @param inherit.aes If \code{FALSE}, overrides the default aesthetics, rather
#'   than combining with them. This is most useful for helper functions that
#'   define both data and aesthetics and should not inherit behaviour from the
#'   default plot specification, e.g. \code{\link[ggplot2]{borders}}.
#' @param ... other arguments passed on to \code{\link[ggplot2]{layer}}. This
#'   can include aesthetics whose values you want to set, not map. See
#'   \code{\link[ggplot2]{layer}} for more details.
#' @param na.rm	a logical indicating whether NA values should be stripped
#'   before the computation proceeds.
#' @param method function or character If character, "lm", "rlm", "lqs", "rq"
#'   and the name of a function to be matched, possibly followed by the fit
#'   function's \code{method} argument separated by a colon (e.g.
#'   \code{"rq:br"}). Functions implementing methods must accept arguments to
#'   parameters \code{formula}, \code{data}, \code{weights} and \code{method}. A
#'   \code{fitted()} method must exist for the returned model fit object class.
#' @param method.args named list with additional arguments.
#' @param n.min integer Minimum number of distinct values in the explanatory
#'   variable (on the rhs of formula) for fitting to the attempted.
#' @param formula a "formula" object. Using aesthetic names instead of
#'   original variable names.
#' @param orientation character Either "x" or "y" controlling the default for
#'   \code{formula}.
#'
#' @details This stat can be used to automatically highlight residuals as
#'   segments in a plot of a fitted model equation. This stat only generates the
#'   residuals, the predicted values need to be separately added to the plot, so
#'   to make sure that the same model formula is used in all steps it is best to
#'   save the formula as an object and supply this object as argument to the
#'   different statistics.
#'
#'   A ggplot statistic receives as data a data frame that is not the one passed
#'   as argument by the user, but instead a data frame with the variables mapped
#'   to aesthetics. In other words, it respects the grammar of graphics and
#'   consequently within the model \code{formula} names of aesthetics like $x$
#'   and $y$ should be used instead of the original variable names. This helps
#'   ensure that the model is fitted to the same data as plotted in other
#'   layers.
#'
#' @note In the case of \code{method = "rq"} quantiles are fixed at \code{tau =
#'   0.5} unless \code{method.args} has length > 0. Parameter \code{orientation}
#'   is redundant as it only affects the default for \code{formula} but is
#'   included for consistency with \code{ggplot2}.
#'
#' @section Computed variables: Data frame with same \code{nrow} as \code{data}
#'   as subset for each group containing five numeric variables. \describe{
#'   \item{x}{x coordinates of observations} \item{x.fitted}{x coordinates of
#'   fitted values} \item{y}{y coordinates of observations} \item{y.fitted}{y
#'   coordinates of fitted values}}
#'
#'   To explore the values returned by this statistic we suggest the use of
#'   \code{\link[gginnards]{geom_debug}}. An example is shown below, where one
#'   can also see in addition to the computed values the default mapping of the
#'   fitted values to aesthetics \code{xend} and \code{yend}.
