Plot the variability of an object of class "probability" as a histogram

This histogram method is a utility to visualize the variability of the probabilities obtained with Pr or tailPr, which can also be interpreted as the probability density for the whole-population frequencies.

Usage

# S3 method for class 'probability'
hist(
  p,
  breaks = NULL,
  legend = "top",
  lty = c(1, 2, 4, 3, 6, 5),
  lwd = 2,
  col = palette(),
  alpha.f = 1,
  fill.alpha.f = 0.125,
  showmean = TRUE,
  xlab = NULL,
  ylab = NULL,
  xlim = NULL,
  ylim = c(0, NA),
  main = NULL,
  grid = TRUE,
  add = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

p: object of class "probability", obtained with Pr or tailPr.
breaks: NULL or as in function hist. If NULL (default), an optimal number of breaks for each probability distribution is computed.
legend: one of the values "bottomright", "bottom", "bottomleft", "left", "topleft", "top", "topright", "right", "center" (see legend): plot a legend at that position. A value FALSE or any other does not plot any legend. Default "top".
fill.alpha.f: Numeric, default 0.125: opacity of the histogram filling. 0 means no filling.
showmean: logical: show the means of the probability distributions? The means correspond to the probabilities about the next observed unit.
...: other parameters to be passed to flexiplot.
