\title{Transform vector to ratio}
\usage{
ratio(x, ratio)
}
\arguments{
\item{x}{vector of values}
\item{ratio}{vector with ratios of \code{x} and with same length (like \code{ratio = c(1, 2, 1)}) or a text with characters \code{":"}, \code{"-"} or \code{","} (like \code{ratio = "1:2:1"} or even \code{ratio = "1:2:1.25"})}

Transform vector to ratio

\examples{
# = EXAMPLE 1 =
# Shivrain et al. (2006) crossed clearfield rice (which are resistant
# to the herbicide imazethapyr) with red rice (which are susceptible to
# imazethapyr). They then crossed the hybrid offspring and examined the
# F2 generation, where they found 772 resistant plants, 1611 moderately
# resistant plants, and 737 susceptible plants. If resistance is controlled
# by a single gene with two co-dominant alleles, you would expect a 1:2:1
# ratio.
x <- c(772, 1611, 737)
x.expected <- ratio(x, "1:2:1")
x.expected
# 780 1560 780
g.test(x, x.expected)
# p = 0.12574.
# There is no significant difference from a 1:2:1 ratio.
# Meaning: resistance controlled by a single gene with two co-dominant
# alleles, is plausible.
# = EXAMPLE 2 =
# Red crossbills (Loxia curvirostra) have the tip of the upper bill either
# right or left of the lower bill, which helps them extract seeds from pine
# cones. Some have hypothesized that frequency-dependent selection would
# keep the number of right and left-billed birds at a 1:1 ratio. Groth (1992)
# observed 1752 right-billed and 1895 left-billed crossbills.
x <- c(1752, 1895)
x.expected <- ratio(x, ratio = c(1, 1))
x.expected
# 1823.5 1823.5
g.test(x, x.expected)
# p = 0.01787343
# There is a significant difference from a 1:1 ratio.
# Meaning: there are significantly more left-billed birds.
