Histograms and boxplots

Description

Histograms and boxplots weighted by the sampling weights.

Usage

svyhist(formula, design, breaks = "Sturges",
      include.lowest = TRUE, right = TRUE, xlab = NULL,
       main = NULL, probability = TRUE, freq = !probability, ...)
svyboxplot(formula, design,...)

Arguments

formula One-sided formula for svyhist, two-sided for svyboxplot
design A survey design object
xlab x-axis label
main Main title
probability,freq Y-axis is probability density or frequency
breaks, include.lowest, right As for hist
... Other arguments to hist or bxp

Details

The histogram breakpoints are computed as if the sample were a simple random sample of the same size.

The grouping variable in svyboxplot, if present, must be a factor.

The boxplot whiskers go to the maximum and minimum observations or to 1.5 interquartile ranges beyond the end of the box, whichever is closer. The maximum and minimum are plotted as outliers if they are beyond the ends of the whiskers, but other outlying points are not plotted. This may change in the future. svyboxplot requires a two-sided formula; use variable~1 for a single boxplot.
