Description

Function to plot a missing pattern plot.

Usage

missing.pattern.plot ( data, y.order = FALSE, x.order = FALSE, clustered = TRUE, 
                                    xlab = "Index", ylab = "Variable", 
                                    main = NULL, gray.scale = FALSE,
                                    obs.col = "blue", mis.col = "red", ... )

Arguments

data	data.frame or matrix of data with missing data coded as "NA".
y.order	if TRUE, orders the variable by number of missing value. Default is FALSE.
x.order	if TRUE, orders the data by number of missing value. Default is FALSE.
clustered	if TRUE, data are grouped together with similiar missingness patterns.
xlab	a title for the x axis: see 'title'.
ylab	a title for the y axis: see 'title'.
main	an overall title for the plot: see 'title'.
gray.scale	if TRUE, makes the plot into black and white. This option overwrites the color specification.
