_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Plot profile likelihoods for '"mle"' objects.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     ## S4 method for signature 'profile.mle, missing':
     plot(x, levels, conf = c(99, 95, 90, 80, 50)/100, nseg = 50,
          absVal = TRUE, ...)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

       x: an object of class '"profile.mle"' 

  levels: levels, on the scale of the absolute value of a t statistic,
          at which to interpolate intervals.  Usually 'conf' is used
          instead of giving 'levels' explicitly.

    conf: a numeric vector of confidence levels for profile-based
          confidence intervals on the parameters.

    nseg: an integer value giving the number of segments to use in the
          spline interpolation of the profile t curves.

  absVal: a logical value indicating whether or not the plots should be
          on the scale of the absolute value of the profile t. Defaults
          to 'TRUE'.

     ...: other arguments to the 'plot' function can be passed here.

     _x = "_A_N_Y", _y = "_A_N_Y" Generic function: see 'plot'.

     _x = "_p_r_o_f_i_l_e._m_l_e", _y = "_m_i_s_s_i_n_g" Plot likelihood profiles for 'x'.
