Plotting Distribution Differences

DistDiff is a set of functions for visualizing differences between two distributions.

This package contains functions that plot:

1. two distributions side by side for comparison, with automatically logged axis when necessary, and returns Wilcoxon tests results (comp.dist.plot);

2. Cliff's Delta effect size and the confidence interval (effsize.range.plot).

For a complete list of functions, use help(package = "distdiff")
