In litteR: Litter Analysis

Adjusted Boxplot Statistics

Description

Adjusted boxplot statistics according to Hubert & Vandervieren (2008). The upper whisker extends from the hinge to the largest value no further than the upper fence. Similarly, the lower whisker extends from the hinge to the smallest value no further than the lower fence. See Hubert & Vandervieren (2008, p.5191, Eq.5).

Usage

adj_boxplot_stats(x, ...)

## Default S3 method:
adj_boxplot_stats(x, ...)

Arguments

x	numeric vector
...	further arguments passed to or from other methods.

Value

Numeric vector consisting of respectively the lower whisker/fence, the first quartile/hinge, the median, the third quartile/hinge, and the upper whisker/fence.

Methods (by class)
