plot.ci: Method for plotting pooled simulations by confidence intervals

Description

Plot confidence intervals of simulated quantities of interest, across a range of a variable.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'ci':
plot(x, qi="ev", var=NULL, ..., main = NULL, sub = NULL, xlab = NULL, 
  ylab = NULL, xlim = NULL, ylim = NULL, legcol="gray20", col=NULL, leg=1, legpos=NULL,
   ci=c(80,95,99.9))

Arguments

x
A `sim' object
qi
a character-string specifying the quantity of interest to plot: "ev" expected values, "pv" predicted values, "fd" first differences
var
The variable to be used on the x-axis
...
Parameters to be passed to the `truehist' function which is implicitly called for numeric simulations
main
A character-string, specifying the main title of the plot
sub
A character-string, specifying the sub-title of the plot
xlab
A character-string, specifying the label for the x-axis
ylab
A character-string, specifying the label for the y-axis
xlim
A vector of length 2, specifying the left-most and right-most values for the plot
ylim
A vector of length 2, specifying the bottom-most and top-most values for the plot
legcol
``legend color'', an valid color used for plotting the line colors in the legend
col
a valid vector of colors of at least length 3 to use to color the confidence intervals
leg
``legend position'', an integer from 1 to 4, specifying the position of the legend. 1 to 4 correspond to ``SE'', ``SW'', ``NW'', and ``NE'' respectively
legpos
``legend type'', exact coordinates and sizes for legend. Overrides argment ``leg.type''
ci
A vector of length up to 3, specifying the three confidence interval levels to plot on the graph (where confidence is expressed on the scale 0-100).
