ec.mto: Exact conditional test for many-to-one comparisons of...

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) References Examples

Description

This function calculates the exact distribution of the maximum of test statistics with unpooled variance estimators for the difference of many-to-one comparisons of proportion. Using this, p-values for the max-test are computed.

Usage

1
ec.mto(n, x, alternative = "less")

Arguments

n

vector of integers specifying the number of trials in each group, where the first value is taken as control

x

vector of integers specifying the number of successes in each group, where the first value is taken as control

alternative

a character string, one of "two.sided", "greater", "less"

Value

a single numeric value, the p.value of the maximum test
