Methods and formulas For a practical introduction to these techniques with an emphasis on examples rather than theory, seeAcock(2014),Bland(2000), orSprent and Smeeton(2007). For a summary of these tests, see Snedecor and Cochran(1989). Methods and formulas are presented under the following headings: ranksum median ranksum
