Parameters

sample1
Type: SystemDouble
The first sample.
sample2
Type: SystemDouble
The second sample.
alternate (Optional)
Type: Accord.Statistics.TestingTwoSampleHypothesis
The alternative hypothesis (research hypothesis) to test.
exact (Optional)
Type: SystemNullableBoolean
True to compute the exact distribution. May require a significant amount of processing power for large samples (n > 12). If left at null, whether to compute the exact or approximate distribution will depend on the number of samples. Default is null.
adjustForTies (Optional)
Type: SystemBoolean
Whether to account for ties when computing the rank statistics or not. Default is true.
