I seem to be able to use expected values that are decimal (e.g., 1.33) when using chisq.test but not when using fisher.test. This happens when using an array/matrix as input. Fisher.test returns: Error in sprintf(gettext(fmt, domain = domain), ...) : invalid format '%d'; use format %s for character objects.
Thus, it appears fisher.test is looking for integers only. I tried putting the data in x and y factor objects, but that does not work either. Is there another way to use non-integer expected values with fisher.test or is that a limitation of fisher.test? If I must use integer expected values, I suppose one option would be round the expected value down or up to an integer. But, which? I tried that, but they produce different p values.
