Basic - T-Test -> Grouping Factor Must have Exactly 2 Levels
are you doing this:
t.test(y~x)
when you mean to do this
t.test(y,x)
In general use the ~
then you have data like
y <- 1:10
x <- rep(letters[1:2], each = 5)
and the ,
when you have data like
y <- 1:5
x <- 6:10
I assume you're doing something like:
y <- 1:10
x <- rep(1,10)
t.test(y~x) #instead of t.test(y,x)
because the error suggests you have no variation in the grouping factor x
The differences between ~ and , is the type of statistical test you are running. ~ gives you the mean differences. This is for dependent samples (e.g. before and after). , gives you the difference in means. This is for independent samples (e.g. treatment and control). These two tests are not interchangeable.
