public enum HypothesisTypeRemarks
This values in this enumeration specify under what condition the null hypothesis should be rejected.
For some hypothesis tests like the one sample z and t test, the hypothesis type can be chosen freely. Each value of the HypothesisType corresponds to a different null hypothesis. For other tests, like a ChiSquareGoodnessOfFitTest, only one value of the hypothesis type makes sense.
Members
| OneTailedLower | 1 | The null hypothesis is rejected if the test statistic lies in the left (lower) tail of the test distribution. |
| OneTailedUpper | 2 | The null hypothesis is rejected if the test statistic lies in the right (upper) tail of the test distribution. |
| TwoTailed | 4 | The null hypothesis is rejected if the test statistic lies too far on either side of the mean of the test distribution. |
