pottwhitt.boot {DCluster}

Bootstrap Replicates of Potthoff-Whittinghill's Statistic

Description

Generate bootstrap replicates of Potthoff-Whittinghill's statistic (function pottwhitt.stat), by means of function boot from the boot library. Notice that these functions should not be used separately but as argument statistic when calling function boot.

pottwhitt.boot is used when performing a non-parametric bootstrap.

pottwhitt.pboot is used when performing a parametric bootstrap.

Usage

pottwhitt.boot(data, i)
pottwhitt.pboot(...)

Arguments

data

A dataframe containing the data, as specified in the DCluster manual page.

i

Permutation generated by the bootstrap procedure

...

Additional arguments passed when performing a bootstrap.

Value

Both functions return the value of the statistic.
