Detailed Description

generate a box plot with points

Function Documentation

generateBoxPlot()

function handles = generateBoxPlot	(		dataset,
			label,
			options )

generate a box plot with points

Example

dataset{1} = normrnd(50,2,200,1); dataset{2} = normrnd(25,2,200,1); label = Distribution 1; label(2,:) = Distribution 2; options.xlabel = Specimen Id; options.ylabel = Distribution; options.figIndex = 1024; hFig = generateBoxPlot(dataset, label, options);

Parameters

dataset

- a cell array with datasets label - a char array with labels (Note that the labels should be the same length!), use char(cell_array) to generate options - a structure with optional parameters .mode - a string, when preview the plot is scaled to the figure .width - plot width in cm .height - plot height in cm .ylim - a vector with min and max y-value .xlabel - label for the x axis .ylabel - label for the y axis .showpoints - a switch to show or not the data points .spereadfactor - a number with a spread factor, from 0 to 1 .nbins - a number of bins for the points spread .figIndex - an index of a figure to plot results .fontsize - font size

Return values

handles

handle for the figure .hFig - handle of the figure .plotAxes - handle of the axes .h2 - handle of the dot plot
