chisq.exp: Expected counts for comparison of proportions to given values

In RVAideMemoire: Testing and Plotting Procedures for Biostatistics

Expected counts for comparison of proportions to given values

Description

Returns expected counts before comparing proportions to given values by a chi-squared test.

Usage

chisq.exp(data, p, graph = FALSE)

Arguments

data	contingency table.
p	theoretical proportions.
graph	logical. If TRUE a mosaic plot of expected counts is drawn.

Details

The function returns how many counts can be < 5 to respect Cochran's rule (80% of counts must be >= 5).

Value

p.theo	theoretical proportions.
mat	contingency table of expected counts.
cochran	number of counts which can be < 5.
