Citrin Box & Whisker and Box-Percentile Charts
The box & whisker graphs display rank statistics. They can have the form of a box or notched box that spans the distance between the two quartiles surrounding the median.
A box-percentile plot gives the same graphical information as a box plot, but also uses width to encode information about the shape of the distributions.

Two-Way Box & Whisker and Box-Percentile Charts
A two-way box & whisker or box-percentile plot allows comparing rank statistics of response data (scores, measurements) obtained from pq levels of two experimental factors (i.e.,k=pq samples/groups).
Required Worksheet Layout
-
Here, a categorical column stores levels of a grouping variable (i.e., the 1st factor, and two or more numeric columns store response values (scores,
measurements), each corresponding to only one level of the 2nd factor but all levels of the 1st factor.
- The chart legend entries represent the response variables; the X-axis labels represent levels of the grouping variable.

One-Way Box & Whisker and Box-Percentile Charts
The one-way plots are designed for comparing rank statistics of response data from k>=2 samples/groups, with response values of each group being stored in a separate numeric column, i.e., no grouping variable is required to split the data into its subsets.
