plotdiscdensity: Plotting the Density of a Vector of Discrete Values

In mbtyers/recapr: Two Event Mark-Recapture Experiment

Description

Plots the empirical density of a vector of discrete values, approximating the probability mass function (pmf). This can be considered a more appropriate alternative to plot(density(x)) in the case of a vector with a discrete (non-continuous) support, such as that calculated by an abundance estimator.

Usage

plotdiscdensity(x, xlab = "value", ylab = "density", ...)

Arguments

x	The vector of values to plot
xlab	The X-axis label for plotting
ylab	The Y-axis label for plotting
...	Additional plotting arguments

Examples

draws <- rChapman(length=100000, N=500, n1=100, n2=100)
plotdiscdensity(draws)  #plots the density of a vector of discrete values
