BoxAndWhisker

[brownidj]

Please see RFE 794107 for a first pass at a CategoryItem implementation of BoxAndWhisker. Please note it is very incomplete and I will be adding to the code in the next few days.

If you have an interest in BoxAndWhisker, I would very much appreciate any comments.

I have posted a new, improved version of the box and whisker category stuff.

Tim, if you are interested, it includes a class to calculate the various values required for box and whisker from a list of values.

There is still much work to be done - be careful!

David,

I took a look at the initial code this weekend and I'm really existed about the calculation code as well as the new category stuff. I have a feeling we will want to use this in my project at work for our next release. Thanks so much for contributing this code!

Hi David,

I will try to take a look at your code and give you any suggestions I have. Tell me when you think it is ready for integration into the main release (it doesn't need to be perfect, just useful!).

BoxAndWhiskerCategoryItemLabelGenerator has been added, as well as a number of other small changes.

David, I think this is now in the 'useful' (but only with caution) category. the javadocing is woefully inadequae, but I am having problems on that score - see my post about javadocs on an XP box. No doubt my trusty mac will sort it out in the next few days. (:

I took a look at your code yesterday, and made some (reasonably significant) changes. I also added basic Javadocs as I went along.
I have a couple of things to fix, then I'll package up the code and send it to you. Then I suggest that we merge our changes and get it into CVS...

[brownidj]

No worries, David. I'm going bush for a week or so as from Saturday, so don't wait on me if you need to merge the code. I am assuming 0.9.12 is due very shortly, so I'll look at the changes when I get back.
