plot.fv
Plot Function Values
Plot method for the class "fv"
.
Usage
## S3 method for class 'fv':
plot(x, fmla, \dots, subset=NULL, lty=NULL, col=NULL, lwd=NULL,
xlim=NULL, ylim=NULL, xlab=NULL, ylab=NULL, ylim.covers=NULL,
legend=!add, legendpos="topleft", legendmath=TRUE, legendargs=list(),
shade=NULL, shadecol="grey", add=FALSE)
Arguments
- x
- An object of class
"fv"
, containing the variables to be plotted or variables from which the plotting coordinates can be computed. - fmla
- an R language formula determining which variables or expressions are plotted. Either a formula object, or a string that can be parsed as a formula. See Details.
- subset
- (optional) subset of rows of the data frame that will be plotted.
- lty
- (optional) numeric vector of values of the graphical parameter
lty
controlling the line style of each plot. - col
- (optional) numeric vector of values of the graphical parameter
col
controlling the colour of each plot. - lwd
- (optional) numeric vector of values of the graphical parameter
lwd
controlling the line width of each plot. - xlim
- (optional) range of x axis
- ylim
- (optional) range of y axis
- xlab
- (optional) label for x axis
- ylab
- (optional) label for y axis
- ...
- Extra arguments passed to
plot.default
. - ylim.covers
- Optional vector of $y$ values that must be included in the
$y$ axis. For example
ylim.covers=0
will ensure that the $y$ axis includes the origin. - legend
- Logical flag or
NULL
. Iflegend=TRUE
, the algorithm plots a legend in the top left corner of the plot, explaining the meaning of the different line types and colours. - legendpos
- The position of the legend. Either a character string keyword
(see
legend
for keyword options) or a pair of coordinates in the formatlist(x,y)
. - legendmath
- Logical. If
TRUE
, the legend will display the mathematical notation for each curve. IfFALSE
, the legend text is the identifier (column name) for each curve. - legendargs
- Named list containing additional arguments to be passed to
legend
controlling the appearance of the legend. - shade
- An index that identifies two columns of
x
. When the corresponding curves are plotted, the region between the curves will be shaded in light grey. Often used for displaying simulation envelopes, by settingshade=c("hi",
- shadecol
- The colour to be used in the
shade
plot. A character string or an integer specifying a colour. - add
- Logical. Whether the plot should be added to an existing plot
Details
This is the plot
method for the class "fv"
.
The use of the argument fmla
is like plot.formula
, but offers
some extra functionality.
The left and right hand sides of fmla
are evaluated in the data frame x
,
and the results are plotted against each other
(the left side on the $y$ axis
against the right side on the $x$ axis).
Both left and right sides may be variables in the data frame
or expressions in these variables.
Multiple curves may be specified by a single formula
of the form
cbind(y1,y2,...,yn) ~ x
, where x,y1,y2,...,yn
are
expressions involving the variables in the data frame.
Each of the variables y1,y2,...,yn
in turn will be plotted
against x
.
See the examples.
Convenient abbreviations which can be used in the formula are
- the symbol
.
which represents all the variables in the data frame (other than the function argument itself); - the symbol
.x
which represents the function argument; - the symbol
.y
which represents the recommended value of the function.
The value returned by this plot function indicates the meaning of the line types and colours in the plot. It can be used to make a suitable legend for the plot if you want to do this by hand. See the examples.
The argument shade
can be used to display critical bands
or confidence intervals. If it is not NULL
, then it should be
a subset index for the columns of x
, that identifies exactly
2 columns. When the corresponding curves are plotted, the region
between the curves will be shaded in light grey. See the Examples.
The default values of lty
, col
and lwd
can
be changed using spatstat.options("plot.fv")
.
Value
- Either
NULL
, or a data frame giving the meaning of the different line types and colours.
