public static TestResult WilcoxonSignedRankTest(
	IReadOnlyList<double> x,
	IReadOnlyList<double> y
)

Public Shared Function WilcoxonSignedRankTest ( 
	x As IReadOnlyList(Of Double),
	y As IReadOnlyList(Of Double)
) As TestResult

public:
static TestResult^ WilcoxonSignedRankTest(
	IReadOnlyList<double>^ x, 
	IReadOnlyList<double>^ y
)

static member WilcoxonSignedRankTest : 
        x : IReadOnlyList<float> * 
        y : IReadOnlyList<float> -> TestResult 

Parameters

x

Type: System.Collections.GenericIReadOnlyListDouble
The values of the first variable.

y

Type: System.Collections.GenericIReadOnlyListDouble
The values of the second variable.

Return Value

The Wilcoxon signed rank test is a non-parametric alternative to the paired t-test (PairedStudentTTest(IReadOnlyListDouble, IReadOnlyListDouble)). Given two measurements on the same subjects, this method tests for changes in the distribution between the two measurements. It is sensitive primarily to shifts in the median. Note that the distributions of the individual measurements may be far from normal, and may be different for each subject.
