AndersonResult.Equals

Compares the two scalars and both tables, value by value.

public bool Equals(AndersonResult other)

Parameters — other is the result to compare against, or null.

Returns — true when the statistic and the p-value match and both tables hold the same values in the same order.

Example — the same result, built twice.

using Lodestar.Stats;

AndersonResult left = new(0.5, 0.1, [0.5, 0.6], [15.0, 10.0]);
AndersonResult right = new(0.5, 0.1, [0.5, 0.6], [15.0, 10.0]);

bool same = left == right;  // => True

Remarks — written rather than generated because the two members are arrays, which a record's generated equality compares by reference: two results holding the same critical values would otherwise be unequal. ChiSquaredContingencyResult.Equals exists for the same reason.

Applies to — net10.0, netstandard2.0.
