plotFriedEggs

Render a Pairs Plot as Fried Eggs and Beer

Description

Create a pairs plot where the lower left half comprises either fried egg contours or smoke ring contours, the upper right half comprises glasses of beer filled to the correlation point, and the diagonals show frequency histograms of the input data.

Usage

plotFriedEggs(A, eggs=TRUE, rings=TRUE, levs=c(0.01,0.1,0.5,0.75,0.95),
    pepper=200, replace=FALSE, jitt=c(1,1), bw=25, histclr=NULL)

Arguments

`A`	data frame or matrix for use in a pairs plot.
`eggs`	logical: if `TRUE`, fry eggs in the lower panels.
`rings`	logical: if `TRUE`, blow smoke rings in the lower panels.
`levs`	explicit contour levels expressed as quantiles.
`pepper`	number of samples to draw from `A` to pepper the plots.
`replace`	logical: if `TRUE`, sample `A` with replacement.
`jitt`	argument `factor` used by function `base::jitter` when peppering. If user supplies two numbers, the first will jitter `x`, the second will jitter `y`.
`bw`	argument `bandwidth` used by function `KernSmooth::bkde2D`.
`histclr`	user-specified colour(s) for histogram bars along the diagonal.

Details

This function comes to us from Dr. Steve Martell of the Fisheries Science Centre at UBC. Obviously many hours of contemplation with his students at the local pub have contributed to this unique rendition of a pairs plot.

Note

If eggs=TRUE and rings=FALSE, fried eggs are served.
If eggs=FALSE and rings=TRUE, smoke rings are blown.
If eggs=TRUE and rings=TRUE, only fried eggs are served.
If eggs=FALSE and rings=FALSE, only pepper is sprinkled.

Examples

local(envir=.PBSmodEnv,expr={
  oldpar = par(no.readonly=TRUE)
  x=rnorm(5000,10,3); y=-x+rnorm(5000,1,4); z=x+rnorm(5000,1,3)
  A=data.frame(x=x,y=y,z=z)
  for (i in 1:3)
    switch(i,
    {plotFriedEggs(A,eggs=TRUE,rings=FALSE);
     pause("Here are the eggs...(Press Enter for next)")},
    {plotFriedEggs(A,eggs=FALSE,rings=TRUE);
     pause("Here are the rings...(Press Enter for next)")},
    {plotFriedEggs(A,eggs=FALSE,rings=FALSE);
     cat("Here is the pepper alone.\n")} )
  par(oldpar)
})
