  • 1.  Thoughts on BoxPlots

    Posted 04-24-2022 21:54
    Hi, In Gnumeric, the attribute gnm:outliers= true determines whether outliers are excluded from the main part of the boxplot. Gnumeric (and apparently Excel) are using the Tukey definition of Outliers. Since there are other Outlier definitions around I thin that perhaps instead of a true/False attribute we should be using an attribute that allows for name-spaced attribute values: draw:outliers= draw:none , draw:outliers= draw:tukey , etc. I also note that there are other styles of boxplots, see https://vita.had.co.nz/papers/boxplots.pdf Andreas -- Andreas J.
