StatProbPlots.StatExpPlot Method

void StatExpPlot(TVec Data, TVec XDrawVec, TVec YDrawVec, ref Double MinX, ref Double MaxX, ref Double MinY, ref Double MaxY, Boolean DataSorted)

Exponential distribution probability plot.

#NameDescription
1DataData to be drawn.
2DataSortedIf true, algorithm assumes Data is already sorted in ascending order. If Data is not sorted, you must set this parameter to false so that internal algorithm will automatically do the sorting.
3XDrawVecReturns vector of X values to be drawn - > Data estimated quantiles or in this case ordered data values.
4YDrawVecReturns vector of Y values to be drawn - > theretical Exponential probability values or in this case -ln(1-p), where p are predefined theoretical probabilities.
5MinXReturns slope line start X point, XDrawVec 25th percentile. These value are used by Dew.Stats.Tee.ProbabilityPlot series.
6MinYReturns slope line start Y point, YDrawVec 25th percentile. These value are used by Dew.Stats.Tee.ProbabilityPlot series.
7MaxXReturns slope line end X point, XDrawVec 75th percentile. These value are used by Dew.Stats.Tee.ProbabilityPlot series.
8MaxYReturns slope line end Y point, YDrawVec 75th percentile. These value are used by Dew.Stats.Tee.ProbabilityPlot series.

Result: stored in self (calling object)

Remarks:

How to construct Exponential distribution probability plot?

  • If needed, Data values are sorted (DataSorted parameter set to false).
  • Abscissa drawing values are formed by estimated data quantiles - ordered Data values. After calculation they are copied to XDrawVec. Dew.Math.TMtxVecBase.Length and Dew.Math.TMtxVec.Complex properties of XDrawVec are adjusted automatically.
  • Ordinate drawing values are formed by using theoretical probability p 0 to p -> -ln(1-p). After calculation they are copied to YDrawVec. Dew.Math.TMtxVecBase.Length and Dew.Math.TMtxVec.Complex properties of YDrawVec are adjusted automatically.
  • XDrawVec and YDrawVec 25th and 75th percentile points are used to construct a reference line. Drawing points departures from this straight line indicate departures from Exponential distribution.
