[SciPy-Dev] Missing statistical Tests for scipy.stats

[Haslwanter Thomas]

Hi,

in preparing a statistics lecture using Python (http://work.thaslwanter.at/Stats/html/ ), I realized that two important statistical tests are currently not available in scipy:


·         McNemar Test (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McNemar%27s_test )

·         Cochran's Q-Test (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cochran%27s_Q_test)

I have found the equations for the McNemar test, and implemented a version in Python. Would there be an interest in incorporating this module in scipy.stats?

If I'd get the formulas for Cochran's Q-test, I would also be keen on implementing that one.

What do you think?
