Compute the Wilcoxon rank-sum statistic.

Usage

rankSum(data, selector)

Details

This is an efficient function to compute the value of the Wilcoxon rank-sum statistic without the extra overhead of the full wilcox.test function. It is used internally by the MultiWilcoxonTest class to perform row-by-row Wilcoxon tests.

Value
