tiebreak: Break the ties in a given vector or between two vectors
In obouaziz/test: Calibrated correlation, two samples tests

Description Usage Arguments Details Examples

If the vector contains ties (either inside a single or between two vectors), the function breaks them using a random perturbation.

1	tiebreak(x, y = NULL)

x, y

the variables containing ties.

If y=NULL the function detects the ties in the vector x. A uniform variable with parameters [-e^(-5),e^(-5)] is added to the value of all the ties but one in the vector x. If y is also provided, the function detects the ties between x and y and break them (only in the x vector) by adding a uniform variable with parameters [-e^(-5),e^(-5)] to these values.

x <- c(1,2,2,3,4,5,5,5,7)
xbreak=tiebreak(x)
xbreak #a uniform value has been added to the second, sixth and seventh value of x.
sum(duplicated(xbreak))#check if the breaking procedure has worked.
y <- c(4,9,12,11,2,10)
xy_break=tiebreak(x,y)
xy_break$x
xy_break$y #a uniform value has been added to the second, third and fifth value of x.
xy_break$x%in%xy_break$y #check that no values for xbreak can be found in ybreak
