Hi as documentation does not say anything about changing quantile computation it seems to me that you have 2 options:
1. change source code 2. change values computed by boxplot.stats and do plotting with newly computed values by bxp see respective help pages and look at structure for boxplot e.g. mybox <- boxplot(something) mybox$stats <- changing.function(something) bxp(mybox) HTH Petr On 11 Feb 2007 at 22:04, Cecilia Alm wrote: Date sent: Sun, 11 Feb 2007 22:04:42 -0600 From: "Cecilia Alm" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: r-help@stat.math.ethz.ch Subject: [R] Boxplot: quartiles/outliers > For boxplot(), is it possible to pass in a parameter to change the > default way that the 1st and 3rd quartiles are computed? > (specifically, I'd like to use type 6 described in the quantile > function). > > Also, what are the options for how outliers are computed, and how can > one change them? > > Thank you > > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] > > ______________________________________________ > R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide > http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, > minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
