# == Description
# 
# This example illustrates how daru, combined with Statsample::Graph::Boxplot
# can be used for generating box plots of a normally distributed set of data.
# 
# The 'rnorm' function, defined in statsample/shorthands generates a Daru::Vector
# object which contains the specified number of random variables in a normal distribution.
# It uses the 'distribution' gem for this purpose.
# 
# Create a boxplot of the data by specifying the vectors a, b and c and providing 
# necessary options to Statsample::Graph::Boxplot. The 'boxplot' function is shorthand
# for calling Statsample::Graph::Boxplot.
