Methods

IconTypeDescription
CalculateStatistic()
Evaluates the test statistic.
Equals(Object)
Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.
Finalize()
Allows an Object to attempt to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection.
GetConfidenceInterval(Double)
Returns the confidence interval for the test parameter for the specified confidence level.
GetHashCode()
Serves as a hash function for a particular type.
GetLowerCriticalValue()
Gets the lower critical value for the hypothesis test's current significance level.
GetLowerCriticalValue(Double)
Gets the lower critical value for the hypothesis test at the specified significance level.
GetType()
Gets the Type of the current instance.
GetUpperCriticalValue()
Gets the upper critical value for the test statistic at the hypothesis test's current significance level.
GetUpperCriticalValue(Double)
Gets the upper critical value for the test statistic at the specified significance level.
MemberwiseClone()
Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.
Reject()
Returns a value that indicates whether the null hypothesis is rejected using the default significance level.
Reject(Double)
Returns a value that indicates whether the null hypothesis is rejected using the specified significance level.
ToString()
Returns a String that represents the current Object.

Constructors

IconTypeDescription
MultiSampleTestNew(HypothesisType)
Constructs a new MultiSampleTest object.
MultiSampleTestNew(NumericalVariable[](), HypothesisType, Double, ContinuousDistribution)
Constructs a new MultiSampleTest object.
MultiSampleTestNew(VariableCollection, HypothesisType, Double, ContinuousDistribution)
Constructs a new MultiSampleTest object.

Properties

IconTypeDescription
Distribution
Sets the probability distribution used in the hypothesis test.
HypothesisType
Gets or sets a value that indicates whether the test is one or two-tailed.
PValue
Gets the probability that the test statistic would take on the calculated value under the null hypothesis.
Samples
Gets the collection of samples for the test.
SignificanceLevel
Gets the significance level used to test the null hypothesis.
Statistic
Gets the value of the test statistic.

Remarks

Use the MultiSampleTest class as a base class for a statistical test based on multiple samples. This class adds the Samples property, which is of type VariableCollection, and can be used to retrieve, add, and remove the collection of samples.

This is an abstract base class and cannot be instantiated directly.

Note to inheritors: You must override CalculateStatistic(). You must also set the Distribution property, either in the constructor or in your CalculateStatistic() implementation. If applicable, you should override GetConfidenceInterval(Double).
