Studentized Range Distribution in R (2 Examples) | ptukey & qtukey Functions

In this tutorial, I’ll explain how to apply the Studentized Range distribution functions in R.

Table of contents:

Here’s how to do it.

Example 1: Studentized Range Cumulative Distribution Function (ptukey Function)

Example 1 shows how to draw a plot of the Studentized Range cumulative distribution function (CDF) in R:

x_ptukey <- seq(0, 30, by = 1)                       # Specify x-values for ptukey function
y_ptukey <- ptukey(x_ptukey, nmeans = 5, df = 2)     # Apply ptukey function
plot(y_ptukey, type = "o")                           # Plot ptukey values

Example 2: Studentized Range Quantile Function (qtukey Function)

The second example illustrates how to plot the quantile function of the Studentized Range distribution in R:

x_qtukey <- seq(0, 1, by = 0.01)                     # Specify x-values for qtukey function
y_qtukey <- qtukey(x_qtukey, nmeans = 5, df = 2)     # Apply qtukey function
plot(y_qtukey, type = "o")                           # Plot qtukey values

  Hey Endalew,
  
  For more precise tips, you would have to be more specific about your data.
  
  However, you may have a look at the following tutorials for some hints:
