Hello everybody and thank you,

This has been very helpful, and now the two-sided K-S test for Mathematica
is online for everybody to enjoy.

I have implemented the new code from Andy and from Ray on my data set and
the code from Ray works out better for me...though I don't have the skill to
decipher what that "ugly" code is doing, I've verified several results so
I'm using those exact p-values. I'm going to build a table of the p-values
from these tests (which is made into plot over time with the test being
performed on the individual-trial data streams of two cohorts at each time
step).

I have one last question, or maybe it's a request.. In Ray's code if I put
in two data sets wherein all the points are at the same value (e.g. all
zero) the result is not a K-stat of 0, and a p-value of 1, but rather
{-\[Infinity], 0.}. That doesn't seem like the right answer (and in any
case not the answer that I expect or can use) so this input combination
doesn't work with how the technique calculates the stats. So I'd like to
request a small change to the code Ray provided so that if the inputs are
all identical the output is {0,1} instead of {-\[Infinity], 0.}. I could do
this post-facto with a replacement rule, but it would probably be better and
faster to do this in the original calculation. But with THAT code I don't
know where to make the appropriate changes.

Again, thanks everybody for your help.

Best,
Aaron


p.s. I may end up using the Kuiper test and I might therefore have a similar
question about implementing that in Mathematica very soon.
