rgabriel {rgabriel}

the length of bar for Gabriel's barplot

Description

Show the upper or lower confidence interval of Gabriel's barplot.

Usage

rgabriel(x, f, a = 0.05)

Arguments

x

data vector

f

factor vector

a

alpha level of mutiple comparison.

Details

As shown in Gabriel's paper,use M(alpha,k*,v), the upper alpha point of the Studentized Maximum Modulus of k* normals and v df. And this method is a graphical way for visually mutiple comparision.

Value

vstar
