gqqplot

GQQPLOT(X,DIST) makes an plot of the quantiles of the data set X versus the inverse of the cdf of a distribution specified in DIST, evaluated at probabilities equal to the quantiles of X. The parameters of the distribution are calculated from X.

The purpose of the QQ plot is to determine whether the sample in X is drawn from a given distribution. If it is, the plot will be linear. In the case of the Binomial distribution, an additional parameter is needed: N, number of trials, e.g. GQQPLOT(X,'binom',N).

The name of the distribution can be (case insensitive):

'norm' or 'normal'
'gam' or 'gamma'
'logn' or 'Lognormal',
'exp' or 'Exponential',
'wbl' or 'Weibull'.
'beta'
'bin' or 'Binomial'
'ev' or 'Extreme Value',
'gev' or 'Generalized Extreme Value',
'gp' or 'Generalized Pareto',
'nbin' or 'Negative Binomial',
'poiss' or 'poisson'
'unif' or 'uniform'
'rayl' or 'rayleigh'

EXAMPLE:
x= gamrnd(2,0.5,1000,1);
gqqplot(x,'normal') %Bad fit
gqqplot(x,'gamma') %Good fit
