Description

Provides a one-sample hypothesis test. The test assumes that the underlying population is normal and furthermore that \(\sigma\) is known.

Usage

one.sample.z(data = NULL, null.mu = 0, xbar = NULL, sigma, n = NULL, 
alternative = "two.sided", conf = 0.95)

Value

Returns a test statistic and a p-value.

Arguments

data

A vector of quantitative data. Not required if xbar and n are supplied by the user.

null.mu

The expectation for the null distribution.

xbar

Sample mean. Not required if is.null(data)==FALSE

sigma

The null distribution standard deviation

n

The sample size. Not required if is.null(data)==FALSE
