Classical Gauss Test

One and two sample Gauss test for equal mean of normal random variates with known variance.

Gauss.test(x,y=NULL,mean=0,sd=1,alternative = c("two.sided", "less", "greater"))

`x`	a numeric vector providing the first dataset
`y`	optional second dataset
`mean`	the mean to compare with
`sd`	the known standard deviation
`alternative`	the alternative to be used in the test

The Gauss test is in every Text-Book, but not in R, because it is nearly never used. However it is included here for educational purposes.

A classical "htest" object

`data.name`	The name of the dataset as specified
`method`	a name for the test used
`parameter`	the mean and variance provided to the test
`alternative`	an empty string
`p.value`	The p.value computed for this test

x <- rnorm(100)
y <- rnorm(100)
Gauss.test(x,y)
