Description

Run coin-flipping like permutation tests (to compare difference of 2 means: 'x1' and 'x2') without any distribution-assumptions. Uses the package coin.

Usage

coinPermTest(
  x1,
  x2,
  orient = "two.sided",
  nPerm = 5000,
  silent = FALSE,
  callFrom = NULL
)

Arguments

x1

numeric vector (to be compared with vector 'x2')
