HypothesisType Enumeration

Enumerates the possible values for a hypothesis test.

[Visual Basic]
Public Enum HypothesisType
[C#]
public enum HypothesisType

Remarks

This values in this enumeration specify under what condition the null hypothesis should be rejected.

For some hypothesis tests like the one sample z and t test, the hypothesis type can be chosen freely. Each value of the HypothesisType corresponds to a different null hypothesis. For other tests, like a ChiSquareGoodnessOfFitTest, only one value of the hypothesis type makes sense.

Members
