Dear all,
I constructed this function called my.boxplot.stats by replacing
fivnum()
with quantile() in function boxplot.stats(). So I can try different
quantile
methods in bwplot(). The problem is I couldn't pass different values
to the
"type" argument to my.boxplot.stats, which in turn is an argument in
bwplot(). Now I just have to manually change the "type" value in
my.boxplot.stats. What I would like to do is call bwplot() like
bwplot(CL~DOSE,data=patab,stats=my.boxplot.stats(type=7)),
You have defined a function with an argument of x that does not have a
default value, so it throws an error when you call it with no value
for x. (It's not complaining about the type argument.)

But I got an error:
Error in my.boxplot.stats(type = 7) : element 1 is empty;
the part of the args list of 'is.na' being evaluated was:
(x)
Thanks a lot.
