qq.flex.weibull: Quantile versus quantile (QQ) plot for the flexible...

In reliaR: Package for some probability distributions.

Description

The function qq.flex.weibull() produces a QQ plot for the flexible Weibull(FW) based on their MLE or any other estimate. Also, a line going through the first and the third quartile can be sketched.

Usage

qq.flex.weibull(x, alpha.est, beta.est, main = " ", line.qt = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

x	vector of observations
alpha.est	estimate of the parameter alpha
beta.est	estimate of the parameter beta
main	the title for the plot
line.qt	logical; if TRUE, a line going by the first and third quartile is sketched.
...	additional arguments to be passed to the underlying plot function.

Value

The function qq.flex.weibull() carries out a QQ plot for the flexible Weibull(FW).
