Draw boxplots from summaries

Description

gbxp draws box plots based on the given summaries in z. It is usually called from within gboxplot but can be invoked directly.

Usage

gbxp(
  z,
  notch = FALSE,
  width = NULL,
  varwidth = FALSE,
  outline = TRUE,
  notch.frac = 0.5,
  log = "",
  border = par("fg"),
  pars = NULL,
  horizontal = FALSE,
  add = FALSE,
  at = NULL,
  show.names = NULL,
  ...,
  grid = TRUE,
  col.grid = "grey90",
  col.acc = "white"
)

Arguments

`z`	a list containing data summaries to be used in constructing the plots. These are usually the result of a call to `boxplot`, but can be generated in any fashion.
`notch`	if `notch` is `TRUE`, a notch is drawn in each side of the boxes. If the notches of two plots do not overlap then the medians are significantly different at the 5 percent level.
`width`	a vector giving the relative widths of the boxes making up the plot.
`varwidth`	if `varwidth` is `TRUE`, the boxes are drawn with widths proportional to the square-roots of the number of observations in the groups.
`outline`	if `outline` is not true, the outliers are not drawn.
`notch.frac`	numeric in (0,1). When `notch = TRUE`, the fraction of the box width that the notches should use.
`log`	character, indicating if any axis should be drawn in logarithmic scale, as in `plot.default`.
`border`	character or numeric (vector), the color of the box borders. Is recycled for multiple boxes. Is used as default for the `boxcol`, `medcol`, `whiskcol`, `staplecol`, and `outcol` options (see below).
`horizontal`	logical indicating if the boxplots should be horizontal; default `FALSE` means vertical boxes.
`add`	logical, if true add boxplot to current plot.
`at`	numeric vector giving the locations where the boxplots should be drawn, particularly when `add = TRUE`; defaults to `1:n` where `n` is the number of boxes.
`show.names`	Set to `TRUE` or `FALSE` to override the defaults on whether an x-axis label is printed for each group.
`grid`	logical; if `TRUE`, a background grid will be drawn
`col.grid`	`grid` color
`col.acc`	`grid` accent color
