hint
is an R
package for performing
hypothesis testing based on Hypergeometric Intersection distributions.
For example if you had three gene sets arising from three separate
experiments with x
genes shared between the three, you
could determine the probability of arriving at this intersection size by
chance. See the companion paper for more
information.

## The probability of an intersection of size 5 or greater
## when sampling 15, 8, and 7 balls from three urns
## each with 1 ball in each of 29 categories.
phint(29, c(15, 8, 7), vals = 5)
v cum.p1 5 0.0002289938
## Formalising a hypothesis test using 'hint.test'.
# Categories given in the first column.
# Numbers of balls in each category given in subsequent columns: each column representing an urn.
