TTEST (paired) t-test
For a sample X from a normal distribution with unknown mean and
variance, perform a t-test of the null hypothesis `mean (X) == M'.
Under the null, the test statistic T follows a Student
distribution with `DF = length (X) - 1' degrees of freedom.
TTEST treads NaNs as "Missing values" and ignores these.
H = ttest(x,m)
tests Null-hypothesis that mean of x is m.
H = ttest(x,y)
size of x and size of y must match, it is tested whether the
difference x-y is significantly different to m=0;
H = ttest(x,y,alpha)
H = ttest(x,y,alpha,tail)
H = ttest(x,y,alpha,tail,DIM)
[H,PVAL] = ttest(...)
[H,PVAL,CI] = ttest(...)
[H,PVAL,CI,stats] = ttest(...)
H=1 indicates a rejection of the Null-hypothesis at a significance
level of alpha (default alpha = 0.05).
With the optional argument string TAIL, the alternative of interest
can be selected. If TAIL is '!=' or '<>' or 'both', the null is tested
against the two-sided Alternative `mean (X) ~= mean (Y)'. If TAIL
is '>' or 'right', the one-sided Alternative `mean (X) > mean (Y)' is used.
Similarly for '<' or 'left', the one-sided Alternative `mean (X) < mean
(Y)' is used. The default is the two-sided case.
H returns whether the Null-Hypotheses must be rejected.
The p-value of the test is returned in PVAL.
TTEST works on the first non-singleton dimension or on DIM.
If no output argument is given, the p-value of the test is
displayed.
