class Statsample::Graph::Boxplot

Boxplot¶ ↑

From Wikipedia: In descriptive statistics, a box plot or boxplot (also known as a box-and-whisker diagram or plot) is a convenient way of graphically depicting groups of numerical data through their five-number summaries: the smallest observation (sample minimum), lower quartile (Q1), median (Q2), upper quartile (Q3), and largest observation (sample maximum). A boxplot may also indicate which observations, if any, might be considered outliers.

Usage¶ ↑

Svg output¶ ↑

a=[1,2,3,4].to_scale
b=[3,4,5,6].to_scale
puts Statsample::Graph::Boxplot.new(:vectors=>[a,b]).to_svg

Using ReportBuilder¶ ↑

a=[1,2,3,4].to_scale
b=[3,4,5,6].to_scale
rb=ReportBuilder.new
rb.add(Statsample::Graph::Boxplot.new(:vectors=>[a,b]))
rb.save_html('boxplot.html')

Attributes

groups[RW]

Array with assignation to groups of bars For example, for four vectors,

boxplot.groups=[1,2,1,3]

Assign same color to first and third element, and different to second and fourth

height[RW]

Total height of Boxplot

label_angle[RW]

The rotation angle, in radians. Text is rotated clockwise relative to the anchor location. For example, with the default left alignment, an angle of Math.PI / 2 causes text to proceed downwards. The default angle is zero.

margin_bottom[RW]

Bottom margin

margin_left[RW]

Left margin

margin_right[RW]

Right margin

margin_top[RW]

Top margin

maximum[RW]

Maximum value on y-axis. Automaticly defined from data

minimum[RW]

Minimum value on y-axis. Automaticly defined from data

name[RW]

vectors[RW]

Vectors to box-ploting

width[RW]

Total width of Boxplot

x_scale[R]

y_scale[R]
