Permutation Test of a Binary Sequence

Description

Given a binary sequence of 0's and 1's, computes the p-value of a permutation test of randomness using a simulation-based permutation test. The sum of squared spacings is used as the measure of streakiness (the clumpiness statistic).

Usage

permutation.test(x, ITER = 1000)

Arguments

x	vector of 0's and 1's
ITER	number of iterations of simulation

Value

the p-value, the probability that the clumpiness statistic under the randomness model is at least as large as the observed value
