iwp.test: Weibullness Test from a inverse Weibull Plot

In weibullness: Goodness-of-Fit Test for Weibull Distribution (Weibullness)

Weibullness Test from a inverse Weibull Plot

Description

Performs the statistical test of inverse Weibullness (Goodness-of-fit test for the inverse Weibull distribution) using the sample correlation from the inverse Weibull plot.

Usage

iwp.test(x, a)

Arguments

x	a numeric vector of data values. Missing values are allowed, but the number of non-missing values must be between 3 and 1000.
a	the offset fraction to be used; typically in (0,1). See ppoints().

Details

The inverse Weibullness test is constructed using the sample correlation which is calculated using the associated inverse Weibull plot. The critical value is then looked up in IW.Plot.Quantiles. There is print method for class "htest".

Value

A list with class "htest" containing the following components:

statistic	the value of the test statistic (sample correlation from the inverse Weibull plot)
p.value	the p-value for the test.
sample.size	sample size (missing observations are deleted).
method	a character string indicating the inverse Weibullness test.
data.name	a character string giving the name(s) of the data.
