Modal value

Modal value


In a histogram are shown, for each joint family, the distribution of the characteristic (aperture, spacing, persistence). On the x-axis, (logarithmic scale), are represented the characteristics, while on the ordinate (linear scale), the number of occurrences or measures corresponding to each subdivision class (ex. class 0-4 mm).

 

The user can plot sequentially all the measured families.

 

The modal value of a characteristic (aperture, spacing, persistence) is the class with the largest number of measurements. In the same graphic can be shown the minimum and maximum values ​​of the plotted characteristic.

 

In the diagram are represented the apertures of a joint family, whose modal value corresponds to the class 0.5 - 0.6 mm.
