SkewLaplacePlots {HyperbolicDist}

Skew-Laplace Quantile-Quantile and Percent-Percent Plots

Description

qqskewlap produces a skew-Laplace QQ plot of the values in y.

ppskewlap produces a skew-Laplace PP (percent-percent) or probability plot of the values in y.

If line = TRUE, a line with zero intercept and unit slope is added to the plot.

Graphical parameters may be given as arguments to qqskewlap, and ppskewlap.

Usage

qqskewlap(y, Theta, main = "Skew-Laplace Q-Q Plot",
  xlab = "Theoretical Quantiles",
  ylab = "Sample Quantiles",
  plot.it = TRUE, line = TRUE, ...)

ppskewlap(y, Theta, main = "Skew-Laplace P-P Plot",
  xlab = "Uniform Quantiles",
  ylab = "Probability-integral-transformed Data",
  plot.it = TRUE, line = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

y

The data sample.

Theta

Parameters of the skew-Laplace distribution.

xlab, ylab, main

Plot labels.

plot.it

Logical. TRUE denotes the results should be plotted.

line

Logical. If TRUE, a line with zero intercept and unit slope is added to the plot.

...

Further graphical parameters.

Value

For qqskewlap and ppskewlap, a list with components:

x

The x coordinates of the points that are be plotted.

y

The y coordinates of the points that are be plotted.
