Description

med.test() performs the Median test and is used in chapters 6 and 7 of "Applied Nonparametric Statistical Methods" (5th edition)

Usage

med.test(
  x,
  y,
  H0 = NULL,
  alternative = c("two.sided", "less", "greater"),
  CI.width = 0.95,
  max.exact.cases = 1000,
  do.asymp = FALSE,
  do.exact = TRUE,
  do.CI = TRUE
)

Arguments

x

Numeric vector of same length as y

y

Numeric vector, or factor of same length as x

H0

Null hypothesis value (defaults to NULL)

alternative

Type of alternative hypothesis (defaults to two.sided)

CI.width

Confidence interval width (defaults to 0.95)

max.exact.cases

Maximum number of cases allowed for exact calculations (defaults to 1000)

do.asymp

Boolean indicating whether or not to perform asymptotic calculations (defaults to FALSE)

do.exact

Boolean indicating whether or not to perform exact calculations (defaults to TRUE)

do.CI

Boolean indicating whether or not to perform confidence interval calculations (defaults to TRUE)

Value

An ANSMtest object with the results from applying the function
