| Tukey {stats} | R Documentation |
Functions of the distribution of the studentized range, R/s,
where R is the range of a standard normal sample and
df*s^2 is independently distributed as
chi-squared with df degrees of freedom, see pchisq.
ptukey(q, nmeans, df, nranges = 1, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE) qtukey(p, nmeans, df, nranges = 1, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)
q |
vector of quantiles. |
p |
vector of probabilities. |
nmeans |
sample size for range (same for each group). |
df |
degrees of freedom for s (see below). |
nranges |
number of groups whose maximum range is considered. |
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]. |
If ng =nranges is greater than one, R is
the maximum of ng groups of nmeans
observations each.
ptukey gives the distribution function and qtukey its
inverse, the quantile function.
The length of the result is the maximum of the lengths of the numerical arguments. The other numerical arguments are recycled to that length. Only the first elements of the logical arguments are used.
A Legendre 16-point formula is used for the integral of ptukey.
The computations are relatively expensive, especially for
qtukey which uses a simple secant method for finding the
inverse of ptukey.
qtukey will be accurate to the 4th decimal place.
qtukey is in part adapted from Odeh and Evans (1974).
