Dear all, I am trying to do a fishers test on a 5x4 table on R statistics. I have already done a chi squared test using Minitab on this data set, getting a result of (1, N = 165.953, DF 12, p>0.001), yet using these results (even though they are excellent) may not be suitable for publication. I have tried numerous other statistical packages in the hope of doing this test, yet each one has just the 2x2 table. I am struggling to edit the template fishers test on R to fit my table (as according to the R book it is possible, yet i cannot get it to work). The template given on the R documentation and R book is for a 2x2 fisher test. What do i need to change to get this to work? I have attached the data with the email so one can see what i am on about. Or do i have to write my own new code to compute this.
Yours Sincerely, Paul Brett
