Sampler

The Sampler allows you to obtain the coordinates of points on:

• Histogram Plots (distribution curve)
  
• Cumulative Distribution (S-curve) Plots
• Scatter Plots
  
• Convergence Plots
  
• Sensitivity Plots

The Sampler is displayed as a set of horizontal and vertical dotted lines.

To use the Sampler:

• SINGLE click the LEFT mouse button anywhere on the plot, and the sampler will jump to that location, and display the results.

For example, plot the Cumulative Factor of Safety distribution, and move the Sampler to Factor of Safety = 1. The Y coordinate displayed will be the Probability of Failure (i.e. the probability that the Safety Factor < 1).

The display of the Sampler can be turned on or off in the right-click menu or the Chart menu.
