[R] Package 'coin' - How to extract rho

[Achim Zeileis]

Christine,

thanks for the example. As far as I can see, the "coin" package does not 
explicitly compute Spearman's rho. This is probably also the reason why it 
isn't reported in the test output. Thus, you would have to do this "by 
hand" using cor(..., method = "spearman").

Hope that helps,
Achim
