|
|
18 ## |
|
|
19 ## For a sample x from a normal distribution with unknown mean and |
|
|
20 ## variance, perform a t-test of the null hypothesis mean(x) == m. |
|
|
21 ## Under the null, the test statistic t follows a Student distribution |
|
|
22 ## with df = length (x) - 1 degrees of freedom. |
|
|
23 ## |
|
|
24 ## With the optional argument string alt, the alternative of interest |
|
3426
|
25 ## can be selected. |
|
3200
|
26 ## If alt is "!=" or "<>", the null is tested against the two-sided |
|
|
27 ## alternative mean(x) != m. |
|
|
28 ## If alt is ">", the one-sided alternative mean(x) > m is considered, |
|
3426
|
29 ## similarly for "<". |
|
3200
|
30 ## The default is the two-sided case. |
|
|
31 ## |
|
|
32 ## pval is the p-value of the test. |
|
3426
|
33 ## |
|
3200
|
34 ## If no output argument is given, the p-value of the test is displayed. |
