This module is intended for a detailed analysis of two datasets (two samples). The module offers two analyses: independent samples comparison, and paired samples comparison. Independent samples x, y feature no mutual relationship. They can have different sample sizes, in general. Ordering of the elements of both samples is arbitrary and can be changed without any information loss. Main point of this analysis is to decide, whether the expected values E(x) and E(y) of the two samples are different. Weight of peanuts from two different locations can serve as an example of two independent samples. On each location, a few dozens of the peanuts are selected at random and weighted individually.
