Description: An R software package on statistical tests widely utilized
in biostatistics, public policy and law. Along with the well
known tests for equality of means and variances, randomness,
measures of relative variability etc, the package contains new
robust tests of symmetry, omnibus and directional tests of
normality, and their graphical counterparts such as Robust QQ
plot; a robust trend tests for variances etc. All implemented
tests and methods are illustrated by simulations and real-life
examples from legal statistics, economics, and biostatistics.
