qq.expo.logistic: Quantile versus quantile (QQ) plot for the Exponentiated Logistic(EL) distribution

Description

The function qq.expo.logistic() produces a QQ plot for the Exponentiated Logistic(EL) based on their MLE or any other estimate. Also, a line going through the first and the third quartile can be sketched.

Usage

qq.expo.logistic(x, alpha.est, beta.est, main = " ", line.qt = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

x
vector of observations
alpha.est
estimate of the parameter alpha
beta.est
estimate of the parameter beta
main
the title for the plot
line.qt
logical; if TRUE, a line going by the first and third quartile is sketched.
...
additional arguments to be passed to the underlying plot function.

Value

The function qq.expo.logistic() carries out a QQ plot for the Exponentiated Logistic(EL).
