qq.gumbel: Quantile versus quantile (QQ) plot for the Gumbel...

In reliaR: Package for some probability distributions.

Description

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

Usage

qq.gumbel(x, mu.est, sigma.est, main = " ", line.qt = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

x	vector of observations
mu.est	estimate of the parameter mu
sigma.est	estimate of the parameter sigma
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.gumbel() carries out a QQ plot for the Gumbel.
