public class Schema
extends Path

This class represents a schema in a virtual co-ordinate system. A schema is a graphical summary of a batch of data. The usage is taken from Tukey (1977) who invented the schematic plot which has come to be known as the box plot. A schema is an individual "box-and-whiskers" object in a box plot.
