Calculates Kendall's tau W every factor variable pair in a dataset.

Usage

pair_tauW(d, handle.na = TRUE, warnings = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

d

A dataframe

handle.na

ignored. Pairwise complete observations are used automatically.

warnings

If TRUE, generates a warning for datasets of one row, one column, or with constant variables.

...

other arguments

Value

A tibble of class pairwise with factor pairs, or NULL if there are not at least two factor variables

Details

Calculated using KendallW. Assumes factor levels are in the given order. NAs are automatically handled by pairwise omit.

Examples

 d <- data.frame(x=rnorm(20), 
                 y=factor(sample(3,20, replace=TRUE)), 
                 z=factor(sample(2,20, replace=TRUE)))
 pair_tauW(d)
