Dear list
I am using the qq.plot command to create quantile-quantile plots. The plot
should display a 45 degree reference line upon which the points of the graph
should fall if the two distributions being examined are roughly equal.
If I try:
x<-rchisq(100, df=6)
qq.plot(x, dist="chisq", df=6)
Then I get a quantile plot which has an intercept of roughly 1 when the line
should be going through (0,0)?
Could someone explain why this is happening on this plot and how I can get
what I need?
Many thanks
Laura
