Usage vboxplot(var1, var2, ... , vark [,graphics keyword phrases]) produces vertically oriented parallel Tukey boxplots for the vectors var1 through vark. It is identical with boxplot(var1, var2, ..., vark, vertical:T [,graphics keyword phrases]). vboxplot(Struc [,graphics keyword phrases]) produces vertically oriented parallel box plots for the components of structure Struc, all of which must be vectors. It is identical with boxplot(Struct, vertical:T [,graphics keyword phrases]). You can use all the graphics keyword phrases that boxplot() recognizes. Keyword 'symbols' is interpreted differently from other plotting commands; see below. Keyword 'symbols' Keyword 'symbols' has a different meaning from other plotting commands. You use it to specify symbols for moderate outliers (beyond inner fences and inside outer fences) and extreme outliers (beyond outer fences). The value of 'symbols' must be a CHARACTER scalar or vector of length 2. Cmd> vboxplot(x1, x2, x3, symbols:vector("\3", "\5")) uses "\3" (square) as a symbol for moderate outliers and "\5" (triangle) as a symbol for extreme outliers. When the value of 'symbols' is a scalar, the default symbol is used for extreme outliers.
