Space shuttle: uncertainty in estimated probability of O-ring damage

Illustrates the uncertainty in the estimated probability of an O-ring suffering thermal distress for a given launch temperature.

shuttle_sim_hists(x, temps, ...)

Arguments

x

A 2-column matrix returned from a call to shuttle_sim_plot

temps

A numeric vector of temperatures, in degrees Fahrenheit.

...

Further arguments to be passed to hist. [Apart from probability, xlab, ylab and main, which are set inside shuttle_sim_hists.]

Value

Nothing, just the plot.
