Re: [R] Fast version of Fisher's Exact Test

Is anyone aware of a fast way of doing fisher's exact test for a series of 2 x 2 tables in R? The fisher.test is really slow if n1=1000 and n2 = 1000. If you don't require exact two-sided p-values (determined according to a likelihood criterion as in fisher.test), you can use the vectorised
