plot.mfData: Specialized method to plot 'mfData' objects

Description Usage Arguments Details See Also Examples

View source: R/fData.R

Description

This function performs the plot of a functional multivariate dataset stored in an object of class mfData. It is able to accept all the usual customizable graphical parameters, otherwise it will use the default ones.

Usage

1
2
## S3 method for class 'mfData'
plot(x, ...)

Arguments

x

the multivariate functional dataset in form of mfData object.

...

additional graphical parameters to be used in plotting functions (see Details for the use of ylab and main).

Details

The current active graphical device is split into a number of sub-figures, each one meant to contain the plot of the corresponding dimension of the mfData object. In particular, they are arranged in a rectangular lattice with a number of rows equal to \lfloor √{ L } \rfloor and a number of columns equal to \lceil L / \lfloor √{L} \rfloor \rceil .

A special use of the graphical parameters allows to set up y-labels and titles for all the sub-figures in the graphical window. In particular, parameters ylab and main can take as argument either a single string, that are repeatedly used for all the sub-graphics, or a list of different strings (one for each of the L dimensions) that have to be used in the corresponding graphic.
