results format in distrACTION

Post by jantonie »

Currently the format is limited to 3 decimal places. It would be nice if we could choose the precision of the results. Thanks a lot in advance for your response.

Best regards

Hi Jantonie,

Thanks very much for this suggestion. We were thinking about this already and will try to implement it in the next version. We will let you know soon.

Best regards,

Boris

Hello

I completely support having more and more decimals or scientific notation.
In a binomial , as long as the x is within the range of 0-n there is a non negative probability as minuscule as it may be and having the module display prob of 0, say for n=10 , p=.3 and p(x>=9) is incorrect. Obviously for one who knows what is happening it is not a full issue per se, but in teaching, students start getting that the prob of x=9, is 0, for x=10 is 0 too. Thanks

Has there been any progress on this fix? I could really use at least 4 decimal places.

Ditto. Would it be possible to just link the output to the build in Results format?

i think no-one is available to maintain distrACTION at the moment. i don't think it would be a difficult module to maintain, if someone wants to take it over.

cheers

here's the repo for the project:

https://github.com/Mrihs/distrACTION

there's instructions for building modules here:

https://dev.jamovi.org/tuts0101-getting-started.html

first step is getting it to build and install into jamovi ... from there you can begin noodling around in the R code.

if you need some assistance, i can send you a slack invite if you like.

Thanks. I'll poke around myself first and let you know if I get stuck.
One question though. I'm on an M1 Mac. Known issues? I've installed the new ARM version of R and had some compatibility issues. I do have both Intel and Windows based machines to test on as well, but kind of wondering if the known issues are going to be worth fighting.
