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
TwoSampleTestNew(HypothesisType)
Constructs a new TwoSampleTest object.
TwoSampleTestNew(NumericalVariable, NumericalVariable, HypothesisType, Double, ContinuousDistribution)
Constructs a new TwoSampleTest 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.
Sample1
Gets or sets the first NumericalVariable this test is being applied to.
Sample2
Gets or sets the second NumericalVariable this test is being applied to.
SignificanceLevel
Gets the significance level used to test the null hypothesis.
Statistic
Gets the value of the test statistic.

Remarks

Use the TwoSampleTest class as a base class for a statistical test based on two samples. This class adds the Sample1 and Sample2 properties, which can be used to get or set the samples. It also provides a constructor that allows this property to be set at the time of construction.

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).
