Function:
A type of scatter plot that displays significant difference between two groups of data. The x axis is the log2 of the fold change between two groups, and the y axis is the negative log2 of P value or Q value. By coloring significantly different points from other points, one can recognize the significant difference between two groups of data.

Parameters:

①Column for x axis: column for log2(FC).

②Column for y axis: column for P value or Q value.

③Threshold of x axis: threshold of fold change. Usually 2 or 1.5.

④Threshold of y axis: threshold of P value or Q value. Usually 0.05 or 0.01.
