- ## usage: [pval, ks] = kolmogorov_smirnov_test_2 (x, y [, alt])
- ##
- ## Performs a 2-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test of the null hypothesis
- ## that the samples x and y come from the same (continuous) distribution.
- ## I.e., if F and G are the CDFs corresponding to the x and y samples,
- ## respectively, then the null is that F == G.
- ##
- ## With the optional argument string alt, the alternative of interest
- ## can be selected.
- ## If alt is "!=" or "<>", the null is tested against the two-sided
- ## alternative F != G. In this case, the test statistic ks follows a
- ## two-sided Kolmogorov-Smirnov distribution.
- ## If alt is ">", the one-sided alternative F > G is considered,
- ## similarly for "<". In this case, the test statistic ks has a
- ## one-sided Kolmogorov-Smirnov distribution.
- ## The default is the two-sided case.
- ##
- ## pval is the p-value of the test.
- ##
- ## If no output argument is given, the p-value is displayed.
