R Documentation

Distribution of the Bartels Rank Test Statistic NM

Probability function, distribution function for the distribution of the Bartels Rank statistic NM, for a sample of size n.

dbartelsrank(x, n, log = FALSE)
pbartelsrank(q, n, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

x, q

a numeric vector of quantiles.

`n`	number of observations to return.
`log, log.p`	logical; if TRUE, probabilities p are given as log(p).
`lower.tail`	logical; if TRUE (default), probabilities are P[X ≤ x] otherwise, P[X > x].

dbartelsrank gives the probability function and pbartelsrank gives the distribution function.

This function can use large amounts of memory and stack (and even crash R if the stack limit is exceeded) if the sample size n is large.
