Table of Quantiles from a Large Simulation for Hartigan's Dip Test
Whereas Hartigan(1985) published a table of empirical percentage
points of the dip statistic (see dip
) based on N=9999
samples of size n from U[0,1], our table of empirical
quantiles is currently based on N=1'000'001 samples for each n.
A numeric matrix
where each row corresponds to sample size n, and each column to
a probability (percentage) in [0,1]. The dimnames are named
n
and Pr
and coercable to these values, see the
examples. attr(qDiptab, "N_1")
is N - 1, such that with
k <- as.numeric(dimnames(qDiptab)$Pr) * attr(qDiptab, "N_1")
,
e.g., qDiptab[n == 15,]
contains exactly the order statistics
D_{[k]} (from the N+1 simulated values of
dip(U)
, where U <- runif(15)
.
Taking N=1'000'001 ensures that all the quantile(X, p)
used here are exactly order statistics sort(X)[k]
.
