[R] Converting tables to matrices

[Michael Bedward]

Hi Luke,

Easy-peasy...  If you have...

result <- fisher.test( some_data )

Then you can get the probability with...

result$p.value

So in your case just modify the apply statement in the previous post to...

pvalues <- apply( x, 1, function(xrow) fisher.test( matrix(xrow,
nrow=2) )$p.value )
