Project description
Shapiro-Francia normality test
Description:
The statistical test of Shapiro-Francia considers the squared correlation between the ordered sample values and the (approximated) expected ordered quantiles from the standard normal distribution. The p-value is computed from the formula given by Royston (1993).
This function performs the Shapiro-Francia test for the composite hypothesis of normality, according to Thode Jr. (2002).
