plot method for an objects of class c("retlev", "lax").
# S3 method for retlev
plot(x, y = NULL, level = NULL, legend = TRUE, digits = 3, plot = TRUE, ...)an object of class c("retlev", "lax"), a result of
a call to return_level, using prof = TRUE.
Not used.
A numeric scalar in (0, 1). The confidence level required for
the confidence interval for the m-year return level.
If level is not supplied then x$level is used.
level must be no larger than x$level.
A logical scalar. Should we add a legend (in the top right
of the plot) that gives the approximate values of the MLE and
100level% confidence limits?
An integer. Passed to signif to
round the values in the legend.
A logical scalar. If TRUE then the plot is produced.
Otherwise, it is not, but the MLE and confidence limits are returned.
Further arguments to be passed to plot.
A numeric vector of length 3 containing the lower
100level% confidence limit, the MLE and the upper
100level% confidence limit.
See the examples in return_level.
Plots the profile loglikelihood for a return level, provided that
x returned by a call to return_level using
prof = TRUE. Horizontal lines indicate the values of the
maximised loglikelihood and the critical level used to calculate
the confidence limits.
If level is smaller than x$level then approximate
100level% confidence limits are recalculated based on the
information contained in x$for_plot.
return_level to perform inferences about return
levels.
