[R] Randomisation tests

[Greg Snow]

For simple permutation tests I usually just code it up in regular R without worrying about any packages.  R is powerful enough that it is simple to do a permutation test in only a few lines ( or sometimes just one long line).  And that way you know exactly what it is doing.
