Description

A function to plot interval dates with different forms.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'dates'
plot(x, y, type = c("ts", "mp", "rg"), taq, tpq, id, out, 
    col, cex, lwd, lty, pch, main = NULL, xlab = NULL, ylab = NULL, 
    xlim = NULL, axes = TRUE, alpha, file = NULL, ...)

Arguments

x	dataset as a data frame object of variables and observations.
y	vector of identifiers (optional)
type	Type of date format to plot: ts timespans with endpoints mp mid points and range rg range only
taq	timespan endpoint terminus ante quem (TAQ)
tpq	timespan endpoint terminus post quem (TPQ)
id	IDs as variable or rownames in dataset x
out	integer or vector with number of outliers to omit (first entry id for latest date)
col	color of pch
cex	size of pch
lwd	width of time interval segments
lty	shape of time interval segments
pch	symbol for taq and tpq
main	plot's main tile
xlab	plot's x label
ylab	plot's y label
xlim	plot's x limits
axes	plot's axes (logical)
alpha	alpha transparency for time interval segments
file	path to produce a file with a PDF format (optional)
...	additional optional parameters

# first 100 entries in the EDH dataset
data("EDH")
EDHdates <- edhw(vars=c("not_after", "not_before"), as="df", limit=100)

# timespans
plot.dates(EDHdates, taq="not_before", tpq="not_after")

# mid points
plot.dates(EDHdates, type="mp", taq="not_before", tpq="not_after")
## End(Not run)
