R help - Jul 2009 - Is there an R implementation for the "Barnard's exact test" (a substitute for fisher.test) ?

Hello R help members. I came across today with an article on Barnard's exact
test (http://www.cytel.com/Papers/twobinomials.pdf), that is supposed to
give a more powerful fisher.test - Because it doesn't assume that we know
the row and column totals are in advance. Any pointers to such a function ?
Thanks, Tal

Hello all,
After almost half a year, I received a friendly e-mail from Peter Calhoun,
sharing his R implementation of Barnard's exact test. With his permission, I
posted his code here:
http://www.r-statistics.com/2010/02/barnards-exact-test-a-powerful-alternative-for-fishers-exact-test-implemented-in-r/<http://www.r-statistics.com/2010/02/barnards-exact-test-a-non-parametric-alternative-for-fishers-exact-test-implemented-in-r/>

I hope others will find it useful.
Please note that the code is not as fast as could be. If someone would wish
to give a faster version of the code, please let me know and I'll gladly
post it.


Cheers,
Tal
