PAIR(1) |STAT January 20, 1987
NAME
pair - paired data points analysis and plots
SYNOPSIS
pair [-fps] [-h height] [-w width] [-c char] [-x xname] [-y yname]
[-t top] [-b bottom] [-l left] [-r right]
DESCRIPTION
_p_a_i_r analyzes paired data by providing summary statistics and
scattergrams. _p_a_i_r reads pairs of points (two points per line) from
the standard input and, without options, provides statistics on the
first variable (X), the second (Y), and their difference. If only one
datum is on each line, then _p_a_i_r will supply the datum number (1 to N)
as the first variable and use the datum as the second.
OPTIONS
-b bottom
minimum Y value at the bottom of the plot (default: from data).
-c char
plotting character (default: frequency counts).
-f do not print frame around plot (default: print frame).
-h height
set height of the plot to _h_e_i_g_h_t lines.
-l left
minimum X value at the left of the plot (default: from data).
-p print bivariate plot.
-r right
maximum X value at the right of the plot (default: from data).
-s requests summary statistics.
-t top
maximum Y value at the top of the plot (default: from data).
-w width
set width of the plot to _w_i_d_t_h characters.
-x name
name of the first variable (default: "Column 1").
-y name
name of the second variable (default: "Column 2").
EXAMPLES
pair -p -h 10 -w 20 # 10 high, 20 wide plot
abut a b | pair -x a -y b # compare two single column files
LIMITS
Use the -L option to determine the program limits.
MISSING VALUES
Cases with missing data values (NA) are counted but not included in
the analysis.
