Accord.Statistics.Testing.Power.ZTestPowerAnalysis.ComputeSamples C# (CSharp) Method

ComputeSamples() public method

Gets the recommended sample size for the test to attain the power indicating in IPowerAnalysis.Power considering values of IPowerAnalysis.Effect and IPowerAnalysis.Size.
public ComputeSamples ( ) : void
return void
        public override void ComputeSamples()
        {
            double Za = ZTest.PValueToStatistic(Size, Tail);
            double Zb = NormalDistribution.Standard
                .InverseDistributionFunction(Power);

            double n = (Za + Zb) / Effect;

            Samples = n * n;
        }
