paracoor: Makes a parallel coordinate plot

Description

Makes a parallel coordinate plot of a data matrix: the coordinates of the observations are plotted so that the coordinate axes are drawn parallel to each other and the coordinates of a single observation are joined with lines.

Usage

paracoor(X, Y=NULL, xmargin = 0.1,
paletti = matrix("black",dim(X)[1],1),
noadd = TRUE, verti = NULL, cex.axis = 1,
points=TRUE, col.verti="black", col.verti.y="red", digits=3,
arg=NULL, colarg="red", lwd=1, cex=1, yaxt="s")

Arguments

X

n*d data matrix of real numbers

Y

n*1 data matrix of real numbers; response variable

xmargin

positive real number; empty space in left and right

paletti

n vector of colors; the lines will be colored with these colors

noadd

TRUE or FALSE; if FALSE, then the lines will be added to an existing plot

verti

real number or NULL; gives the x coordinate of a vertical line; can be used to divide the plot vertically to two parts

cex.axis

the magnification to be used for axis annotation

points

TRUE or FALSE; whether points are plotted and not only lines

col.verti

a caharacter; the name of a color

col.verti.y

a caharacter; the name of a color

digits

a natural number; the number of digits in the annotation

arg

d*1 vector; the current value of the explanatory variable

colarg

a character; the name of a color

lwd

a positive real number; the width of the lines

cex

a positive real number; the largness of the circles

yaxt

a character which specifies the y axis type

Value

Makes a plot on the graphics window
