axisIntervals

Mark Intervals on a Plot Axis

Description

Adds an axis (axisintervals) or two axes (axesIntervals) to the current plot with tick marks delimiting interval described by labels

Usage

axisIntervals(side=1, atTick1=fda::monthBegin.5, atTick2=fda::monthEnd.5,
      atLabels=fda::monthMid, labels=month.abb, cex.axis=0.9, ...)
axesIntervals(side=1:2, atTick1=fda::monthBegin.5, atTick2=fda::monthEnd.5,
      atLabels=fda::monthMid, labels=month.abb, cex.axis=0.9, las=1, ...)

Arguments

`side`	an integer specifying which side of the plot the axis is to be drawn on. The axis is placed as follows: 1=below, 2=left, 3=above and 4=right.
`atTick1`	the points at which tick-marks marking the starting points of the intervals are to be drawn. This defaults to 'monthBegin.5' to mark monthly periods for an annual cycle. These are constructed by calling axis(side, at=atTick1, labels=FALSE, ...). For more detail on this, see 'axis'.
`atTick2`	the points at which tick-marks marking the ends of the intervals are to be drawn. This defaults to 'monthEnd.5' to mark monthly periods for an annual cycle. These are constructed by calling axis(side, at=atTick2, labels=FALSE, ...). Use atTick2=NA to rely only on atTick1. For more detail on this, see 'axis'.
`atLabels`	the points at which 'labels' should be typed. These are constructed by calling axis(side, at=atLabels, tick=FALSE, ...). For more detail on this, see 'axis'.
`labels`	Labels to be typed at locations 'atLabels'. This is accomplished by calling axis(side, at=atLabels, labels=labels, tick=FALSE, ...). For more detail on this, see 'axis'.
`cex.axis`	Character expansion (magnification) used for axis annotations ('labels' in this function call) relative to the current setting of 'cex'. For more detail, see 'par'.
`las`	line axis style; see `par`.
`...`	additional arguments passed to `axis`.

Value

The value from the third (labels) call to 'axis'. This function is usually invoked for its side effect, which is to add an axis to an already existing plot.

axesIntervals calls axisIntervals(side[1], ...) then axis(side[2], ...).

Side Effects

An axis is added to the current plot.

Examples

daybasis65 <- create.fourier.basis(c(0, 365), 65)

daytempfd <- with(CanadianWeather, smooth.basis(
       day.5,  dailyAv[,,"Temperature.C"], 
       daybasis65, fdnames=list("Day", "Station", "Deg C"))$fd )

with(CanadianWeather, plotfit.fd(
      dailyAv[,,"Temperature.C"], argvals=day.5,
          daytempfd, index=1, titles=place, axes=FALSE) )
# Label the horizontal axis with the month names
axisIntervals(1)
axis(2)
# Depending on the physical size of the plot,
# axis labels may not all print.
# In that case, there are 2 options:
# (1) reduce 'cex.lab'.
# (2) Use different labels as illustrated by adding
#     such an axis to the top of this plot

with(CanadianWeather, plotfit.fd(
      dailyAv[,,"Temperature.C"], argvals=day.5,
          daytempfd, index=1, titles=place, axes=FALSE) )
# Label the horizontal axis with the month names
axesIntervals()

axisIntervals(3, labels=monthLetters, cex.lab=1.2, line=-0.5)
# 'line' argument here is passed to 'axis' via '...'
