Chi squared test

Learn chi squared test in R through a focused explanation, a dedicated topic-specific example, an engineering boundary, and a mastery check.

12 min read • Advanced

chi squared test is an atomic R topic inside Statistics. The example uses the named construct directly so you can see its syntax, data flow, and observable behavior.

Read the code by locating the exact feature named chi squared test, then trace the value before and after that feature runs. This lesson is intentionally isolated from neighboring topics: changing identifiers alone would not reproduce the same behavior because the construct itself is different.

Topic-specific example

r-0064-10a091c346.R
r Try It Live 
m <- matrix(c(10,20,20,10),nrow=2);print(chisq.test(m)$statistic)
Edge case / engineering note

For chi squared test, test the boundary that makes the feature meaningful: invalid input, an empty value, a missing branch, lifecycle/cleanup, or a type/runtime constraint. Do not infer correctness only from the happy path.
