Thanks, when I modify the function as I think you suggest, I get the following error:
qansari <- function(p, m, n) { .C("R_qansari", as.integer(length(p)), q = as.double(p), as.integer(m), as.integer(n))$q } > qansari( 0.025, 5, 5) Error in .C("R_qansari", as.integer(length(p)), q = as.double(p), as.integer(m), : C symbol name "R_qansari" not in load table --Dale On Wed, Feb 24, 2010 at 8:47 PM, Sharpie <ch...@sharpsteen.net> wrote: > > > Dale Steele wrote: >> >> I would like to be able to use two functions; qansari and pansari >> which are found in the >> function ansari.test.
