WilcoxonSignedRankDistribution (NMDEV 1.2.9 API)

- dev.nm.stat.test.rank.wilcoxon.WilcoxonSignedRankDistribution

All Implemented Interfaces:

ProbabilityDistribution
```
public class WilcoxonSignedRankDistribution
extends Object
implements ProbabilityDistribution
```
Compute the exact distribution of the Wilcoxon signed rank test statistic.
Let x be a sample of size N from a continuous distribution symmetric about the origin. The Wilcoxon signed rank statistic is the sum of the ranks of the absolute values x[i] for which x[i] are positive. This statistic takes values between 0 and N(N+1)/2.
The R equivalent functions are dsignrank, pdsignrank, qdsignrank, rdsignrank.
