Ploting box plot from statistical summary data












0














I would like to add a box plot to my page. Something like this (using Plotly.js).



The problem with implementing the example from the link above is that the plotly.js library expect all the points, whereas I only have access to the already computed statistical data. In other words, I would like to plot the graphic by passing max, min, med, avr, stdev (statistical data of the series) instead of all the data points themselves.



P.s.: Using plotly.js is not a requirement. I could go with D3.js only if that is an option.

          You can provide the values for the box plot in the y-value of the Plotly box plot object. See the snippet below and the discussion here.






          var min = 1;
          var max = 11;
          var med = 4.25;
          var stdev = 2;

          var y = [min,
          med - stdev,
          med - stdev,
          med,
          med + stdev,
          med + stdev,
          max
          ];

          var box = {
          y: y,
          type: 'box'
          };

          Plotly.newPlot('myDiv', [box]);
