Distribution plots
This section describes the use of
twoway histogram
and
twoway kdensity
for showing
the distribution of a single variable. In addition, this section also shows the use of
twoway
function
for showing the relationship between
using a function that you specify.
See [
G
]
graph twoway histogram
,[
G
]
graph twoway kdensity
, and [
G
]
graph twoway
function
for more information. We will start by showing the
twoway histogram
command
and consider options that allow you to control such things as the number of bins, the width
of the bins, and the starting point for the bins. Then, we will show options that control the
scaling of the
x
and
y
y
-axis. The next few graphs use the
