Before I reinvent the wheel, does anyone have
IDL or Wave code they'd like to share that
makes boxplots? These are plots that show
aspects of the distribution of y for each
x value -- the first and fourth quartiles
form the ends of each box, the median is
a line through the box, the mean is plotted
as an x or other symbol, and the maximum
and minimum are shown the same way error
bars are usually represented. Each
distribution is represented something
like this:
