is.binom: is.binom

Description

judge if the data obeys binomial distribution.

Usage

is.binom(x, m, a, n = NULL, p0 = NULL)

Arguments

x

data

m

the number of intervals you want to divide the data in, default value is 10

a

significance level

n

the number of experiments

p0

the probability of success

Value

Details

Given a set of observations from a certain distribution, this function is used to test whether the observations are from a distribution of binomial or not. Usually, to ensure the function works well, the sample size needs to be large enough, i.e. the result will be stable if the sample size is larger than 100. The function will work better if the number of intervals you choose to divide the data in is between 10 and 20. This number cannot excess the number of given oberservations.
