Hello,

here is the problem:

I want to demonstrate that, on average, the Pearson's correlations of a 
specified subset of genes from a huge list (>18,000 columns) are higher than 
any randomly chosen subset of that list. I would therefore like to do a number 
of tests between that specified subset and randomly chosen ones from the 
"mother" list.

How could I do that? What would be an appropriate statistical test?

Thank you for your help!
