"Sun, Ying" asked:

I have a genotype data for both case and controls and would
like to calculate the HW p-value.  However, since the
number of one genotype is 0, I got wierd result.  Would
someone help me to figure it out?  Or confirm it's right?
Thanks a lot.

HWE.exact(g1)
    Exact Test for Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium
    data:  g1
    N11 = 71, N12 = 9, N22 = 0, N1 = 151, N2 = 9,
    p-value = 1

Yes, that is correct.  Double check it by calculating the
goodness-of-fit chi-square for the same hypothesis:

p <- 151/160; q <- 1-p; 80*c(p^2,2*p*q,q^2)
[1] 71.253125  8.493750  0.253125
