Rui, Your response nearly answered a similar question of mine except that I also have ecdfs of different lengths. Do you know how I can adjust x - seq(min(loga, logb), max(loga, logb), length.out=length(loga)) to account for this? It must be in length.out() but I'm unsure how to proceed.

2012-10-05 Thread Rui Barradas
Hello, Try length.out = max(length(loga), length(logb)) Note also that all of the previous code and the line above assumes that we are interested in the max distance, whereas the KS statistic computes the supremum of the distance. If it's a two sample test then their values are almost surely
