PoweR (version 1.0.7)

power.gui: PoweR GUI

Description

Graphical user interface (GUI) for the package.

Usage

power.gui()

Arguments

Details

This GUI is a 5-tabbed notebook whose goal is to make our package easier to use :

- Tab 1 gensample : generate random samples from a law added in the package;

- Tab 2 statcompute : perform the test for a given index value of test statistic;

- Tab 3 many.crit : computation of critical values for several test statistics;

- Tab 4 powcomp.fast : computation of power and level tables for hypothesis tests;

- Tab 5 Examples : reproduce results from published articles.

Important note concerning 'Iwidgets': for the GUI to work, a third party software has to be installed.

Under Microsoft Windows:

First, install ActiveTcl following indications given here: 'http://www.sciviews.org/_rgui/tcltk/TabbedNotebook.html'

After the installation of ActiveTcl and the modification of the PATH variable, launch from an MsDOS terminal (accessible through typing 'cmd' in the Start Menu) the following command: C:\Tcl\bin\teacup.exe install Iwidgets

You can then check the existence of a directory called 'Iwidgets4.0.2' in 'C:\Tcl\lib\teapot\package\tcl\lib'.

Under Linux:

Install 'iwidgets'.
