triangle.class {ade4}

R Documentation

Triangular Representation and Groups of points

Description

Function to plot triangular data (i.e. dataframe with 3 columns of positive or null values) and a partition

Usage

triangle.class(ta, fac, col = rep(1, length(levels(fac))), 
    wt = rep(1, length(fac)), cstar = 1, cellipse = 0, axesell = TRUE, 
    label = levels(fac), clabel = 1, cpoint = 1, pch = 20, draw.line = TRUE, 
    addaxes = FALSE, addmean = FALSE, labeltriangle = TRUE, sub = "", csub = 1, 
    possub = "bottomright", show.position = TRUE, scale = TRUE, min3 = NULL, 
    max3 = NULL)

Arguments

`ta`	a data frame with 3 columns of null or positive numbers
`fac`	a factor of length the row number of `ta`
`col`	a vector of color for showing the groups
`wt`	a vector of row weighting for the computation of the gravity centers by class
`cstar`	a character size for plotting the stars between 0 (no stars) and 1 (complete star) for a line linking a point to the gravity center of its belonging class.
`cellipse`	a positive coefficient for the inertia ellipse size
`axesell`	a logical value indicating whether the ellipse axes should be drawn
`label`	a vector of strings of characters for the labels of gravity centers
`clabel`	if not NULL, a character size for the labels, used with `par("cex")*clabel`
`cpoint`	a character size for plotting the points, used with `par("cex")*cpoint`. If zero, no points are drawn
`pch`	if `cpoint` > 0, an integer specifying the symbol or the single character to be used in plotting points
`draw.line`	a logical value indicating whether the triangular lines should be drawn
`addaxes`	a logical value indicating whether the axes should be plotted
`addmean`	a logical value indicating whether the mean point should be plotted
`labeltriangle`	a logical value indicating whether the varliable labels of `ta` should be drawn on the triangular sides
`sub`	a string of characters for the graph title
`csub`	a character size for plotting the graph title
`possub`	a string of characters indicating the sub-title position ("topleft", "topright", "bottomleft", "bottomright")
`show.position`	a logical value indicating whether the sub-triangle containing the data should be put back in the total triangle
`scale`	a logical value for the graph representation : the total triangle (FALSE) or the sub-triangle (TRUE)
`min3`	if not NULL, a vector with 3 numbers between 0 and 1
`max3`	if not NULL, a vector with 3 numbers between 0 and 1. Let notice that `min3`+`max3` must equal c(1,1,1)
