Package smile.plot.vega
Class BinParams
java.lang.Object
smile.plot.vega.BinParams
To test a data point in a filter transform or a test property in conditional
encoding, a predicate definition of the following forms must be specified:
- a Vega expression string, where datum can be used to refer to the current
data object. For example, datum.b2 > 60 would test if the value in the
field b2 for each data point is over 60.
- one of the field predicates: equal, lt, lte, gt, gte, range, oneOf, or valid.
- a parameter predicate, which defines the names of a selection that the data
point should belong to (or a logical composition of selections).
- a logical composition of (1), (2), or (3).

Method Details
-
anchor
Sets the value in the binned domain at which to anchor the bins, shifting the bin boundaries if necessary to ensure that a boundary aligns with the anchor value.- Parameters:
value
- the anchor value.- Returns:
- this object.
-
base
Sets the number base to use for automatic bin determination (default is base 10).- Parameters:
base
- the base number.- Returns:
- this object.
-
divide
Sets the scale factors indicating allowable subdivisions. The default value is [5, 2], which indicates that for base 10 numbers (the default base), the method may consider dividing bin sizes by 5 and/or 2. For example, for an initial step size of 10, the method can check if bin sizes of 2 (= 10/5), 5 (= 10/2), or 1 (= 10/(5*2)) might also satisfy the given constraints.- Parameters:
factors
- the scale factors- Returns:
- this object.
-
extent
Sets the range of desired bin values- Parameters:
min
- the lower bound of desired bin values.max
- the upper bound of desired bin values.- Returns:
- this object.
-
maxBins
Sets the maximum number of bins.- Parameters:
bins
- the maximum number of bins.- Returns:
- this object.
-
minStep
Sets the minimum allowable step size (particularly useful for integer values).- Parameters:
size
- the minimum allowable step size.- Returns:
- this object.
-
step
Sets the exact step size between bins.- Parameters:
size
- the exact step size between bins.- Returns:
- this object.
-
steps
Sets an array of allowable step sizes to choose from.- Parameters:
steps
- an array of allowable step sizes to choose from.- Returns:
- this object.
-
nice
If true, attempts to make the bin boundaries use human-friendly boundaries, such as multiples of ten.- Parameters:
flag
- If true, attempts to make the bin boundaries use human-friendly boundaries, such as multiples of ten.- Returns:
- this object.
