Detailed Description

This class provides tools to plot the mass function and the cumulative probability of a discrete probability distribution over the integers.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

DiscreteDistIntChart() [1/2]

DiscreteDistIntChart

(

DiscreteDistributionInt

dist

)

Constructor for a new DiscreteDistIntChart instance used to plot the probabilities of the discrete distribution dist over the integers.

Parameters

dist	discrete distribution to plot

DiscreteDistIntChart() [2/2]

DiscreteDistIntChart	(	DiscreteDistributionInt	dist,
		int	a,
		int	b
	)

Constructor for a new DiscreteDistIntChart instance used to plot the probabilities of the discrete distribution dist over the interval \([a,b]\).

Parameters

dist	continuous distribution to plot
a	lower bound of interval
b	upper bound of interval

Member Function Documentation

getCdf()

XYLineChart getCdf

(

)

Returns the chart of the cdf.

Returns

the chart of the cdf.

getProb()

XYLineChart getProb

(

)

Returns the chart of the probability.

Returns

the chart of the probability.

setParam()

void setParam	(	int	a,
		int	b
	)

Sets the parameters \(a\) and \(b\) for this object.

Parameters

a	lower bound of interval
b	upper bound of interval

toLatexCdf()

String toLatexCdf	(	int	width,
		int	height
	)

Exports a chart of the cumulative probability to a LaTeX source code using PGF/TikZ.

This method constructs and returns a string that can be written to a LaTeX document to render the plot. width and height represents the width and the height of the produced chart. These dimensions do not take into account the axes and labels extra space. The width and the height of the chart are measured in centimeters.

Parameters

width	Chart’s width in centimeters
height	Chart’s height in centimeters

Returns

LaTeX source code

toLatexProb()

String toLatexProb	(	int	width,
		int	height
	)

Similar to toLatexCdf, but for the probability instead of the cdf.

Parameters

width	Chart’s width in centimeters
height	Chart’s height in centimeters

Returns

LaTeX source code

viewCdf() [1/2]

JFrame viewCdf	(	int	width,
		int	height,
		int	a,
		int	b
	)

Displays a chart of the cumulative distribution function (cdf) over the interval \([a,b]\) on the screen using Swing.

This method creates an application containing a chart panel displaying the chart. The created frame is positioned on-screen, and displayed before it is returned. The width and the height of the chart are measured in pixels.

Parameters

width	frame width in pixels.
height	frame height in pixels.
a	lower bound of interval
b	upper bound of interval

Returns

frame containing the chart

viewCdf() [2/2]

JFrame viewCdf	(	int	width,
		int	height
	)

Similar to method viewCdf above.

If the interval \([a,b]\) for the graph is not defined, it will be set automatically to \([\mu- 3\sigma, \mu+ 3\sigma]\), where \(\mu\) and \(\sigma\) are the mean and the variance of the distribution.

Parameters

width	frame width in pixels
height	frame height in pixels

Returns

frame containing the chart

viewProb() [1/2]

JFrame viewProb	(	int	width,
		int	height,
		int	a,
		int	b
	)

Displays a chart of the probability mass function over the interval \([a,b]\) on the screen using Swing.

This method creates an application containing a chart panel displaying the chart. The created frame is positioned on-screen, and displayed before it is returned. The width and the height of the chart are measured in pixels.

Parameters

width	frame width in pixels.
height	frame height in pixels.
a	lower bound of interval
b	upper bound of interval

Returns

frame containing the chart

viewProb() [2/2]

JFrame viewProb	(	int	width,
		int	height
	)

Similar to method viewProb above.

If the interval \([a,b]\) for the graph is not defined, it will be set automatically to \([\mu- 3\sigma, \mu+ 3\sigma]\), where \(\mu\) and \(\sigma\) are the mean and the variance of the distribution.

Parameters

width	frame width in pixels.
height	frame height in pixels.

Returns

frame containing the chart
