A QQ plot, or Quantile-Quantile plot, is a graphical tool used to compare the quantiles of a dataset against the quantiles of a theoretical distribution, such as the normal distribution. This plot helps assess whether the data follows a specific distribution by plotting the ordered values of the data against the expected values from the theoretical distribution. The closer the points lie to the reference line, the more likely the data follows that distribution, making it an essential tool for model diagnostics and residual analysis.
congrats on reading the definition of QQ Plot. now let's actually learn it.
