[gradsusr] Regards Recipe-020: Spaghetti and Box-and-whisker plots and sorting in Grads

[Becker, Bernd]

Hello,

what have we available in Grads that can sort by size?

In recipe-020, box and whisker plot ranges are calculated by 
fraction of standard deviation.

Assume, one were to plot quantiles after ranking:

how would one achieve the ranking?

of a stack of 2-d fields?

This can be a compute intensive and time consuming affair. 
But it would certainly be nice to have. 

(in metview, macro "distribution" does the trick)

many thanks for your suggestions. 

Bernd.
