vs. expected

Cells will be shaded by interpolating between these two colours. Lower percentiles will be closer to the first colour; higher ones will be closer to the second.

Standard Deviations

Cells will be shaded according to the standard deviation for the relationship and how many standard deviations the amount shared is from the average. Click on a palette or palette name below to select it.
