I have a stupid question on how to get the real p-values for wilcox.test and
correlation. the minmun can be reached is 2.2E-16 using the R version
2.6.2. I do not think it is the R version causing this but other issues.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Can I ask why you want this?
I'm curious.
I'm also curious. Anyway, you can get the calculated value by:
wilcox.test(....)$p.value
Note that printing of htest objects results always in the above
mentioned minimum for very small values, because we cannot be sure about
numerical precision, particularly also in the far from centre regions of
a distribution... (and since you should not report a p-value of exactly
0 that may numerically arise when doing such computations).
