23 
24 This class allows to draw quantile-quantile plots
25 
26 Plots can be drawn for 2 datasets or for a dataset and a theoretical
27 distribution function
28 
29 ## 2 datasets:
30  Quantile-quantile plots are used to determine whether 2 samples come from
31  the same distribution.
32  A qq-plot draws the quantiles of one dataset against the quantile of the
33  the other. The quantiles of the dataset with fewer entries are on Y axis,
34  with more entries - on X axis.
35  A straight line, going through 0.25 and 0.75 quantiles is also plotted
36  for reference. It represents a robust linear fit, not sensitive to the
37  extremes of the datasets.
38  If the datasets come from the same distribution, points of the plot should
39  fall approximately on the 45 degrees line. If they have the same
40  distribution function, but location or scale different parameters,
41  they should still fall on the straight line, but not the 45 degrees one.
42  The greater their departure from the straight line, the more evidence there
43  is, that the datasets come from different distributions.
44  The advantage of qq-plot is that it not only shows that the underlying
45  distributions are different, but, unlike the analytical methods, it also
46  gives information on the nature of this difference: heavier tails,
47  different location/scale, different shape, etc.
48 
49  Some examples of qqplots of 2 datasets:

52 
53 ## 1 dataset:
54  Quantile-quantile plots are used to determine if the dataset comes from the
55  specified theoretical distribution, such as normal.
56  A qq-plot draws quantiles of the dataset against quantiles of the specified
57  theoretical distribution.
58  (NOTE, that density, not CDF should be specified)
59  A straight line, going through 0.25 and 0.75 quantiles can also be plotted
60  for reference. It represents a robust linear fit, not sensitive to the
61  extremes of the dataset.
62  As in the 2 datasets case, departures from straight line indicate departures
63  from the specified distribution.
64 
65  "The correlation coefficient associated with the linear fit to the data
66  in the probability plot (qq plot in our case) is a measure of the
67  goodness of the fit.
68  Estimates of the location and scale parameters of the distribution
69  are given by the intercept and slope. Probability plots can be generated
70  for several competing distributions to see which provides the best fit,
71  and the probability plot generating the highest correlation coefficient
72  is the best choice since it generates the straightest probability plot."

78  Example of a qq-plot of a dataset from N(3, 2) distribution and
79  TMath::Gaus(0, 1) theoretical function. Fitting parameters
80  are estimates of the distribution mean and sigma.
