Hi:
I teach statistics and find it useful to draw graphs of the normal
distribution with certain areas filled in (shaded). I have tried
to create a def that will produce the shaded graph. What follows
is my mydefs file and a sample document.
The problem is that sometimes the shading goes all the way to the
upper limit and sometimes it stops short. Note, because I step
through the graph by .1, both the lower and upper arguments should
be rounded to the nearest .1.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
[file mydefs]
import @Graph @Data
def @NormalDensity
right x
{ {1/{sqrt 2*pi}}*e exp {-.5*x*x}}
def @NormalFilledGraph left low right high
{ @Graph
style { axes }
belowgap {0}
xorigin {0}
yorigin {0}
xmin {-2.5}
xmax {2.5}
ymin {0}
xticks {}
yticks {}
yextra {0}
height {2 cm}
{
@Data pairs {solid}
paint {yes}
color {lightgrey}
{xloop from {low} to {high} by {.1} do
{x @NormalDensity x}}
@Data pairs {solid}
{xloop from {-2.5} to {2.5} by {.1} do
{x @NormalDensity x}}
@Data pairs {solid}
{low 0 low @NormalDensity low}
@Data pairs {solid}
{high 0 high @NormalDensity high}
}
}
