hivdata: HIV data set

Description

The data comprises 7680 $z$-values, each relating to a two-sample $t$-test. The test compares gene expression values for 4 HIV patients with values for 4 normal subjects; the $t$-score T[i] for gene $i$ has been transformed to a normal scale, z[i] = qnorm(pt(T[i], df=6)), so that the z[i]'s theoretically would have a standard $N(0,1)$ distribution under the null hypothesis. The original experiment is described in van't Wout et. al. (2003).
