Example 10.2: Estimating Parameters from Lognormal Plots

Note: You must specify a value for the shape parameter for a lognormal Q-Q plot with the SIGMA= option or its alias, the SHAPE= option. The plot in Output 10.2.2 displays the most linear point pattern ...

QQ Plot

In the dialog, you must specify a shape parameter for the lognormal or Weibull distribution. The normal QQ plot can also be generated with the graphs options dialog. As described later in this chapter ...
