Mann Whitney U / Wilcoxon Rank-Sum Test in R: How to conduct the Wilcoxon Rank-Sum (Mann-Whitney U) test (the nonparametric alternative to the two- sample t- test) in R (with example). Find practice dataset (LungCapData) here: (https://statslectures.com/r-scripts-datasets) How to do two sample t test in R?

In this R video tutorial, we will learn how to conduct the Wilcoxon Rank-Sum (aka Mann-Whitney U) test using R statistical software. This is the non-parametric alternative to the independent t-test. Wilcoxon Rank-Sum (Mann-Whitney U) test is appropriate for examining the difference in medians for two independent populations. It is a way of examining the relationship between a numeric outcome variable (Y variable) and a categorical explanatory variable (X variable with 2 levels) when groups are independent. In this video we will learn to use R functions and arguments such as "wilcox.test", "exact", "correct", “conf.int”, “conf.level”, “paired”, and more. These video tutorials are useful for anyone interested in learning data science and statistics with R programming language using RStudio.
