Univariate Analysis of a Single Variable
Description
This function provides detailed univariate analysis for a single variable. Values include the sample mean, median, standard deviation and range, as well as tools for hypothesis tests and confidence intervals.
Usage
univar(X, alpha=0.05, mu0 = 0, shapiro=FALSE, digits=3)
Arguments
X |
A Vector of observed values from a continuous distribution |
alpha |
The desired Type I Error Rate for Hypothesis Tests and Confidence Intervals |
mu0 |
The null hypothesis for the true population mean |
.
shapiro |
Logical: TRUE returns the Shapiro-Wilks Test for normality, this portion calls the shapiro.test function. |
digits |
Number of Digits to round calculations |
Details
This function provides a thorough summary of information within a vector. It conveniently calculates useful statistics at the call of a single command. Furthermore, it provides methods to test the hypothesis/construct confidence intervals for the true population mean.
