Re: st: RE: Graphical questions(box, histogram, pnorm)
Dear Nick,
thank you very much for your help, however I am still encountering troubles.
1) I checked my ados and executable and they are already up to date.
Is there something else that can I do?
2) I wrote:
histogram return, normal addplot(student(129))
but it doesn't work.
3) For the scatter plot, what should I put on the axis? The p.d.f. of
the Students't?
Thank you very much for any help.
Best,
Bea
