Please, Kes, read the help pages (written by volunteers giving of their
own free time) instead of expecting others to do this for you.
?t.test tells you what you want to know. This isn't that difficult to
find, is it? The posting guide asks you to do this before posting to the
list. If for no other reason than saving yourself time waiting for
replies, you should learn how to find out information for yourself in R,
and the posting guide shows you how.
