Hi, I've got a quick question about file permissions and packages... I'm creating my own package, and am having problems with its vignette not being seen when I install it into R... As I understand it, the permissions of the source tree should be as follows: o Directories - drwxrwxr-- o Files - -rw-r--r-- Everything builds and runs through 'R CMD check' fine with

Hi, Forgive a very basic question... I need to take two lists-of-lists, and apply a function to each pair of elements in the lists to return a single list... For example l1 <- list(1:5,6:10,2:15) l2 <- list(1:8,4:12,1:19,4:20) I could easily do an lapply across each of them, but is there a function that does a sort-of pairwise-apply across both together? Does anybody know of a good

I have a question concerning the Wilcoxon signed-rank test, and specifically, which R subroutine I should use for my particular dataset. There are three different commands in R (that I'm aware of) that calculate the Wilcoxon signed-rank test; wilcox.test, wilcox.exact, and wilcoxsign_test. When I run the three commands on the same dataset, I get different p-values. I'm hoping that

The function 'wilcox.test' in R and S gives (almost) identical results (see below). 'qwilcox' however, does not: > qwilcox(p,5,5) p: 0.025 0.975 -------------------- R> 3 22 S> 18 37 I originally wanted to ask a questions, but then I found the answer. Given the confusion I run into, I wonder if this experience is worth reporting. The

Hi. I'm going to introduce the R-package for a group of medical doctors later this week and is a little confused about there use of a test named "willcoxon-pratt" for testing if the clinical and biochemical markers has decreased significantly after the use of some drugs for a group of patients. Looking into the R-functions I would in R recommand using a matched-pairs Wilcoxon

Help needed! Has anyone access to StatXact? I just hacked exact two-sided p-values for rank tests (for package exactDistr, which will move to CRAN/contrib as exactRankTests soon ;-) and would like to compare the results of my implementation to that of StatXact. Could someone please calculate the exact one-sided (both greater and less) and two-sided p-values? # Data from the StatXact-4 manual,

Hello, I use t.test for normal distributed and wilcox.test for non-normal distributed samples. It is easy to write a function for t.test that calculates the effect size, because all parts of the formula are available from the t.test result: r = sqrt(t*t / (t*t + df)) However, for Wilcoxon tests, the formula for effect sizes is: r = Z / sqrt(N) I wonder how I can calculate the Z-score in R for

Dear R people, I notice that the confidence intervals of a very small sample (e.g. n=6) derived from the one-sample wilcox.test are just the maximum and minimum values of the sample. This only occurs when the required confidence level is higher than 0.93. Example: > sample <- c(1.22, 0.89, 1.14, 0.98, 1.37, 1.06) > summary(sample) Min. 1st Qu. Median Mean 3rd Qu. Max.

Dear R-ers, I am currently running some Wilcoxon tests in R-64. How do I find the degrees of freedom in the output I am receiving? > wilcox.test(good$TRUE, good$x4a, paired=FALSE) Wilcoxon rank sum test with continuity correction data: good$TRUE and good$x4a W = 2455, p-value < 2.2e-16 alternative hypothesis: true location shift is not equal to 0 Thank you, Stephen.

Hi all, I have a distribution, and take a sample of it. Then I compare that sample with the mean of the population like here in "Wilcoxon signed rank test with continuity correction": > wilcox.test(Sample,mu=mean(All), alt="two.sided") Wilcoxon signed rank test with continuity correction data: AlphaNoteOnsetDists V = 63855, p-value = 0.0002093 alternative hypothesis:

Dear everyone, I am trying to do a Wilcoxon one-sided test on my gene expression data. These are the data i have in R: data.matrix (matrix, numeric) containing all gene expression data (42 rows=genes, 42 columns=tumors), no column header or row names data.cl (vector, numeric) consisting of 42 0's and 1's to indicate class 0 or class 1 for each column in data.matrix I want to do a

Dear List, after updating the exactRanksumTests package I receive a warning that the package is not developed any further and that one should consider the coin package. I don't find the signed rank test in the coin package, only the Wilcoxon Mann Whitney U-Test. I only found a signed rank test in the stats package (wilcox.test) which is able to calculate the exact pvalues but unfortunately

This is my first post to the mailing list and I guess it's a pretty stupid question but I can't figure it out. I hope this is the right forum for these kind of questions. Before I started using R I was using STATA to run a Wilcoxon signed-rank test on two variables. See data below:

Thank you for a fast response. Nice to see this mailing list being so alive. Regarding Inf issue: I agree with your assessment that Inf should not be removed. The code gave me an impression that Inf values were intentionally removed (since is.finite() was used everywhere, except for paired case). I will try to adjust my patch according to your feedback. One more thing: it seems like you

Hi there, I'm a total newbie to R. I'd like to use a Wilcoxon Rank Sum test to compare two populations of values. Further, I'd like to do this simultaneously for 114 sets of values. The two populations are C and N. The different sets of values have arbitrary names (I'll call them a, b, c etc). The set-up is as follows: a b c d .... C 2 C 3 C 5 C 9 C 4
