Default Panel Function for bwplot

Description:

     This is the default panel function for 'bwplot'.

Usage:

     panel.bwplot(x, y, box.ratio = 1, horizontal, pch, col, cex,
                 fill = "transparent", varwidth = FALSE, coef = 1.5, ...)

Arguments:

    x, y: numeric vector or factor. Boxplots drawn for each unique
          value of 'y' ('x') if 'horizontal' is 'TRUE' ('FALSE')

box.ratio: ratio of box height to inter box space

horizontal: logical. If FALSE, the plot is `transposed' in the sense
          that the behaviours of x and y are switched. x is now the
          `factor'.  Interpretation of other arguments change
          accordingly. See documentation of 'bwplot' for a fuller
          explanation. 

pch, col, cex: graphical parameters controlling the dot

    fill: color to fill the boxplot

varwidth: logical. If TRUE, widths of boxplots are proportional to the
          number of points used in creating it.

    coef: passed to 'boxplot.stats'

     ...: graphical parameters can be supplied

Details:

     Creates Box and Whisker plot of 'x' for every level of 'y'. The
     actual boxplot statistics are calculated using 'boxplot.stats'.
     Note that most arguments controlling the display can be supplied
     to the high-level 'bwplot' call directly.
