21 ## @deftypefn {Function File} {[@var{pval}, @var{t}, @var{df}] =} t_test (@var{x}, @var{m}, @var{alt}) | |
22 ## For a sample @var{x} from a normal distribution with unknown mean and | |
23 ## variance, perform a t-test of the null hypothesis @code{mean | |
24 ## (@var{x}) == @var{m}}. Under the null, the test statistic @var{t} | |
25 ## follows a Student distribution with @code{@var{df} = length (@var{x}) | |
26 ## - 1} degrees of freedom. | |
3200 | 27 ## |
3454 | 28 ## With the optional argument string @var{alt}, the alternative of |
29 ## interest can be selected. If @var{alt} is @code{"!="} or | |
30 ## @code{"<>"}, the null is tested against the two-sided alternative | |
31 ## @code{mean (@var{x}) != @var{m}}. If @var{alt} is @code{">"}, the | |
3457 | 32 ## one-sided alternative @code{mean (@var{x}) > @var{m}} is considered. |
33 ## Similarly for @var{"<"}, the one-sided alternative @code{mean | |
7001 | 34 ## (@var{x}) < @var{m}} is considered. The default is the two-sided |
3457 | 35 ## case. |
3200 | 36 ## |
3454 | 37 ## The p-value of the test is returned in @var{pval}. |
3426 | 38 ## |
3200 | 39 ## If no output argument is given, the p-value of the test is displayed. |
