Hi, type
is(sampA) is(sampV) in the R-prompt. It will show you that at least one of the vectors is not a vector of numerical values in R's sense. Then you have to convert using the as.numeric() function, but you will have to make sure that this really gives you the original vectors. Since your vectors are only 1x10, it's probably easier to type them in anew.

They are of the same dimension. One has 4 zero values and the other has 5. > dim(SampA) [1] 1 10 > dim(SampV) [1] 1 10 I get the folowing error Error in wilcox.test.default(SampA, SampV, na.rm = TRUE, paired = FALSE, : 'x' must be numeric I am using the function wilcox.test(SampA, SampV, na.rm=TRUE, paired=FALSE, conf.level=0.95) ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
