Randomly Permute Time Points or Locations of "epidataCS"
Monte Carlo tests for space-time interaction (epitest)
use the distribution of some test statistic under the null hypothesis
of no space-time interaction. For this purpose, the function
permute.epidataCS randomly permutes the time or space labels of
the events.
permute.epidataCS(x, what = c("time", "space"), keep)x |
an object of class |
what |
character string determining what to permute: time points (default) or locations. |
keep |
optional logical expression to be evaluated in the context
of |
the permuted "epidataCS" object.

## the first 6 events are kept (as are all row.names),
## the time labels of the remaining events are shuffled
## (and events then again sorted by time),
## the marginal temporal distribution is unchangedPlease choose more modern alternatives, such as Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.
