venn.diagram: Make a Venn Diagram

Description

This function takes a list and creates a publication-quality TIFF Venn Diagram

Usage

venn.diagram(x, filename, height = 3000, width = 3000, resolution =
    500, imagetype = "tiff", units = "px", compression =
    "lzw", na = "stop", main = NULL, sub = NULL, main.pos
    = c(0.5, 1.05), main.fontface = "plain",
    main.fontfamily = "serif", main.col = "black",
    main.cex = 1, main.just = c(0.5, 1), sub.pos = c(0.5,
    1.05), sub.fontface = "plain", sub.fontfamily =
    "serif", sub.col = "black", sub.cex = 1, sub.just =
    c(0.5, 1), category.names = names(x), force.unique =
    TRUE, print.mode = "raw", sigdigs = 3, direct.area =
    FALSE, area.vector = 0, hyper.test = FALSE, total.population = NULL, 
    lower.tail = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

x

A list of vectors (e.g., integers, chars), with each component corresponding to a separate circle in the Venn diagram

filename

Filename for image output, or if NULL returns the grid object itself

height

Integer giving the height of the output figure in units

width

Integer giving the width of the output figure in units

resolution

Resolution of the final figure in DPI

imagetype

Specification of the image format (e.g. tiff, png or svg)

units

Size-units to use for the final figure

compression

What compression algorithm should be applied to the final tiff

na

Missing value handling method: "none", "stop", "remove"

main

Character giving the main title of the diagram

sub

Character giving the subtitle of the diagram

main.pos

Vector of length 2 indicating (x,y) of the main title

main.fontface

Character giving the fontface (font style) of the main title

main.fontfamily

Character giving the fontfamily (font type) of the main title

main.col

Character giving the colour of the main title

main.cex

Number giving the cex (font size) of the main title

main.just

Vector of length 2 indicating horizontal and vertical justification of the main title

sub.pos

Vector of length 2 indicating (x,y) of the subtitle

sub.fontface

Character giving the fontface (font style) of the subtitle

sub.fontfamily

Character giving the fontfamily (font type) of the subtitle

sub.col

Character Colour of the subtitle

sub.cex

Number giving the cex (font size) of the subtitle

sub.just

Vector of length 2 indicating horizontal and vertical justification of the subtitle

category.names

Allow specification of category names using plotmath syntax

force.unique

Logical specifying whether to use only unique elements in each item of the input list or use all elements. Defaults to FALSE

print.mode

Can be either 'raw' or 'percent'. This is the format that the numbers will be printed in. Can pass in a vector with the second element being printed under the first

sigdigs

If one of the elements in print.mode is 'percent', then this is how many significant digits will be kept

direct.area

If this is equal to true, then the vector passed into area.vector will be directly assigned to the areas of the corresponding regions. Only use this if you know which positions in the vector correspond to which regions in the diagram

area.vector

An argument to be used when direct.area is true. These are the areas of the corresponding regions in the Venn Diagram

hyper.test

If there are only two categories in the venn diagram and total.population is not NULL, then perform the hypergeometric test and add it to the sub title.

total.population

An argument to be used when hyper.test is true. This is the total population size

lower.tail

logical; if TRUE (default), probabilities are P[X <= x], otherwise, P[X > x]

...

A series of graphical parameters tweaking the plot. See below for details

Value

Plots a figure to the file given by the filename argument.
