contourPlot: contourPlot: Contour Plot

Description

Creates a contour diagram for an object of class facDesign.c.

Usage

contourPlot(
  x,
  y,
  z,
  data = NULL,
  xlim,
  ylim,
  main,
  xlab,
  ylab,
  form = "fit",
  col = 1,
  steps,
  fun,
  plot = TRUE,
  show.scale = TRUE
)

Value

The function contourPlot returns an invisible list containing:

• x - locations of grid lines for x at which the values in z are measured.

• y - locations of grid lines for y at which the values in z are measured.

• z - a matrix containing the values of z to be plotted.

• plot - The generated plot.

Arguments

x

Name providing the Factor A for the plot.

y

Name providing the Factor B for the plot.

z

Name giving the Response variable.

data

Needs to be an object of class facDesign.c and contains the names of x, y, z.

xlim

Vector giving the range of the x-axis.

ylim

Vector giving the range of the y-axis.

main

Character string: title of the plot.

xlab

Character string: label for the x-axis.

ylab

Character string: label for the y-axis.

form

A character string or a formula with the syntax `y~ x+y + x*y`. If form is a character it has to be one out of the following:

• `quadratic`

• `full`

• `interaction`

• `linear`

• `fit`

`fit` takes the formula from the fit in the facDesign.c object fdo. Quadratic or higher orders should be given as I(Variable^2). By default form is set as `fit`.

col

A predefined (1, 2, 3 or 4) or self defined colorRampPalette or color to be used (i.e. `red`).

steps

Number of grid points per factor. By default steps = 25.

fun

Function to be applied to z desirability.

plot

Logical value indicating whether to display the plot. Default is TRUE.

show.scale

Logical value indicating whether to display the color scale on the plot. Default is TRUE.

Examples

fdo = rsmDesign(k = 3, blocks = 2)
fdo$.response(data.frame(y = rnorm(fdo$nrow())))

#I - display linear fit
contourPlot(A,B,y, data = fdo, form = "linear")
#II - display full fit (i.e. effect, interactions and quadratic effects
contourPlot(A,B,y, data = fdo, form = "full")
#III - display a fit specified before
fdo$set.fits(fdo$lm(y ~ B + I(A^2)))
contourPlot(A,B,y, data = fdo, form = "fit")
#IV - display a fit given directly
contourPlot(A,B,y, data = fdo, form = "y ~ A*B + I(A^2)")
#V - display a fit using a different colorRamp
contourPlot(A,B,y, data = fdo, form = "full", col = 2)
#VI - display a fit using a self defined colorRamp
myColour = colorRampPalette(c("green", "gray","blue"))
contourPlot(A,B,y, data = fdo, form = "full", col = myColour)
