plotDistr: plotDistr

In hint: Tools for Hypothesis Testing Based on Hypergeometric Intersection Distributions

Description

Plot a distribution or visualise the result of a hypothesis test.

Usage

plotDistr(
  distr,
  col = "black",
  test.col = "red",
  xlim = NULL,
  ylim = NULL,
  xlab = "Intersection size (v)",
  ylab = "Probability",
  add = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

distr	A data frame or matrix in which the first column gives random variable values, and the second gives probabilities. Can also be a vector (in which case random variables of 0:length(distr) will be automatically assigned, or an object of class hint.test.
col	A character string naming the colour to use for the distribution. Defaults to "black".
test.col	A character string naming the colour to use for the region in which the cumulative probability of the hypothesis test was derived (if it exists). Defaults to "red".
xlim	A vector of two numbers giving the range for the x-axis. If NULL (default), then this is determined by the maximum and minimum values in distr.
ylim	A vector of two numbers giving the range for the y-axis. If NULL (default), then this is determined by the maximum and minimum values in distr.
xlab	A character string giving a label for the x-axis. Deafults to "Intersection size (v)".
ylab	A character string giving a label for the y-axis. Deafults to "Probability".
add	Logical. Whether the plot will be added to an existing plot or not. Defaults to FALSE.
...	Additional arguments to be passed to plot.

Details

Visualising the results of a hypothesis test may often be of interest, but can be especially useful for pedagogical purposes.

Value

Plots to the current device.
