null coefficient of variation, or CV on boundary between null and alternative hypotheses
alternative
a character string specifying the alternative hypothesis, must be one of "two.sided" (default), "greater" or "less". You can specify just the initial letter.
conf.level
confidence level of the interval
distn
assumed distribution
CVmax
maximum coefficient of variation used in uniroot CI searches when distn='normal'
Value
A list of class 'htest'
statistic

stadard deviation
estimate
estimate of coefficient of variation: sd(x)/mean(x) for distn='normal', and sqrt(exp(var(log(x)))-1) for distn='lognormal'
