  dist1 = NULL,
  dist2 = NULL,
  test = "

Value

probability given sum(dist1 "test" dist2) / length(dist1)

Arguments

dist1

A collection of numerical values (posterior distribution).

dist2

A collection of numerical values (posterior distribution).

Examples

Run this code
a <- rnorm(100, 2, 0.1)
b <- rnorm(100, 1.8, 0.1)
compareTwoDistributions(a, b, test = ">=")
compareTwoDistributions(a, b, test = "bhatt")
