Hello,
I have 100000 values that are most likely normally distributed. Values
are written in one column in a file. I run
rndnorm=load <file>
kolmogorov_smirnov_test(rndnorm, "normal", 0.47977, 0.34159)

Octave responds with this:

pval: 0
ans = 0

Even though pval = 0 is what I expected, ans=0 suggests that I am doing
something wrong.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Hi, 

It looks to me like you're just not assigning the output, so it's being written to ans.

try something like:

pval = kolmogorov_smirnov_test(...)

and you should get what you expect. The "pval: 0" is printed from within the function.

Hope this helps,

Matt
