A tidier version of t.test() for two sample tests.
t_test( x, formula, response = NULL, explanatory = NULL, order = NULL, alternative = "two-sided", mu = 0, conf_int = TRUE, conf_level = 0.95, ... )
x | A data frame that can be coerced into a tibble. |
---|---|
formula | A formula with the response variable on the left and the explanatory on the right. |
response | The variable name in |
explanatory | The variable name in |
order | A string vector of specifying the order in which the levels of
the explanatory variable should be ordered for subtraction, where |
alternative | Character string giving the direction of the alternative
hypothesis. Options are |
mu | A numeric value giving the hypothesized null mean value for a one sample test and the hypothesized difference for a two sample test. |
conf_int | A logical value for whether to include the confidence
interval or not. |
conf_level | A numeric value between 0 and 1. Default value is 0.95. |
... | For passing in other arguments to t.test(). |
