Figure 1.5 Example: Interactive Bivariate
Here’s a brief explanation of how this script works. First launch Bivariate with the height and weight
variables and an orthogonal fit based on the variance ratio as defined in the myVarRatio variable:
biv=Bivariate(Y(weight), X(height), Fit Orthogonal(10^myVarRatio));
Then make a slider box that goes from –5 to 5 and sets a value for the global variable myVarRatio. The
slider box then has a script that sends two messages to the Bivariate platform, the first to remove the
current fit, and the second to add a new fit with the chosen variance ratio.
