bxp
draws box plots based on the given summaries in z
.
It is usually called from within boxplot
, but can be
invoked directly.
bxp(z, notch = FALSE, width = NULL, varwidth = FALSE, outline = TRUE, notch.frac = 0.5, log = "", border = par("fg"), pars = NULL, frame.plot = axes, horizontal = FALSE, ann = TRUE, add = FALSE, at = NULL, show.names = NULL, ...)

the plots. These are usually the result of a call to

a logical value indicating whether the default annotation (title and x and y axis labels) should appear on the plot. |
