Is there any package available in R to do the following hypothesis tests? Testing the means of two Poissons (equivalent to the difference of two proportions) Testing the equality of two proportions from binomials Testing the equality of proprtions of two negative binomials (both conditional and unconditional tests). No large sample approximation tests...I need exact tests Thanks, Jim [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Below is a toy alt-rep string example, that generates N random strings: https://gist.github.com/traversc/a48a504eb062554f2d6ff8043ca16f9c example: `x <- altrandomStrings(1e8)` `head(x)` [1] "2PN0bdwPY7CA8M06zVKEkhHgZVgtV1" "5PN2qmWqBlQ9wQj99nsQzldVI5ZuGX" ... `object.size(1e8)` Object.size will call the `set_altstring_Elt_method` for every single element, materializing

You should really take this up with RStudio. Calling object.size on every top level assignment as they appear to do is a bad idea, even without ALTREP. object.size is only a cheap operation for simple atomic vectors. For anything with recursive sturcture it needs to walk the object, so the effort is proprtional to object size: > x <- rep("A", 1e8) > system.time(object.size(x))

R Experts: I am conducting a meta-analysis where the effect measures to be pooled are simple proportions. For example, consider this data from Fleiss/Levin/Paik's Statistical methods for rates and proportions (2003, p189) on smokers: Study N Event P(Event) 1 86 83 0.965 2 93 90 0.968 3 136 129 0.949 4 82 70 0.854 Total
