Plots ecdfs of one or more groups of censored data. Illustrates the differences between groups for group tests such as those done using cen1way or cenanova.
cen_ecdf( x.var, cens.var, xgroup = NULL, xlim = c(0, max(y.var)), Ylab = varname )
x.var | The column of data values plus detection limits |
---|---|
cens.var | The column of indicators, where 1 (or |
xgroup | Optional - grouping or factor variable. Can be either a text or numeric value indicating the group assignment. |
xlim | Limits for the x (data) axis of the ecdf plot. Default is 0 to the maximum of the y.var variable. To change, use option xlim = c(0, 50) if 50 is to be the maximum on the plot. |
Ylab | Optional – input text in quotes to be used as the variable name on the ecdf plot. The default is the name of the |
Plots an empirical cumulative distribution function. If group=NULL
the ECDF of the entire dataset is produced. If group
is identified then ECDFs are plotted for each group seperately and a legend added.
