TITLE(ppoints @@ Ordinates for Probability Plotting)
USAGE(
ppoints(n)
)
ALIAS(ppoints)
ARGUMENTS(
ARG(n @@ either the number of points generate or a vector of observations.)
)
DESCRIPTION(
This generates the sequence of points LANG((1:m - 0.5)/m) where LANG(m) is
either LANG(n), if LANG(length(n)==1), or LANG(length(n)).
It is used in LANG(qqplot), LANG(qqnorm) to generate the set of
probabilities at which to evaluate the inverse distribution.
