已准备好 PGF 箱线图，包括文件中的异常值

Question

这个问题基本上是这个答案. 假设我的输入表如下所示，我该如何处理 PGF 箱线图中的异常数据：

\pgfplotstableread{
    index lw lq med uq uw out1 out2 out3
    0 5 7 8.5 9.5 10 4 11 12
    1 4 5 6.5 8.5 9.5 3 2 13
}\datatable

完整的 MWE 如下所示：

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{pgfplotstable}
\pgfplotsset{compat=newest}
\usepgfplotslibrary{statistics}
\makeatletter
\pgfplotsset{
    boxplot prepared from table/.code={
        \def\tikz@plot@handler{\pgfplotsplothandlerboxplotprepared}%
        \pgfplotsset{
            /pgfplots/boxplot prepared from table/.cd,
            #1,
        }
    },
    /pgfplots/boxplot prepared from table/.cd,
    table/.code={\pgfplotstablecopy{#1}\to\boxplot@datatable},
    row/.initial=0,
    make style readable from table/.style={
        #1/.code={
            \pgfplotstablegetelem{\pgfkeysvalueof{/pgfplots/boxplot prepared from table/row}}{##1}\of\boxplot@datatable
            \pgfplotsset{boxplot/#1/.expand once={\pgfplotsretval}}
        }
    },
    make style readable from table=lower whisker,
    make style readable from table=upper whisker,
    make style readable from table=lower quartile,
    make style readable from table=upper quartile,
    make style readable from table=median,
    make style readable from table=lower notch,
    make style readable from table=upper notch
}
\makeatother

            \pgfplotsinvokeforeach{0,...,\TotalRows}
            {
                % select outlier data
                \pgfplotstablegetelem{#1}{out1}\of\datatable
                \let\oA=\pgfplotsretval

                \addplot+[
                boxplot prepared from table={

                    upper quartile=uq,
                    median=med
                },
                boxplot prepared,
                % to get a more useful legend
                area legend
                ]
                table[row sep=\\]{\oA \\ \oB\\ \oC}; % here is the problem
            
                % add legend entry 
                \pgfplotstablegetelem{#1}{index}\of\datatable
                \addlegendentryexpanded{\pgfplotsretval}
            }
        \end{axis}
    \end{tikzpicture}
    
\end{document}

如果这有助于获得更方便的解决方案，那么它也将是重组我的输入表的选项。

由于扩展问题，您不能简单地从宏中读取表格。相反，我建议您查看宏\pgfplotstabletranspose，它在这里可能非常有用。您可以通过选项指定在转置之前应选择的列columns。

我认为，您想要获得的是以下内容（感谢您指出有关列的选择的问题！）：
