Dear R users,
I am new to R and I would like to ask your help with the following
topic. I have three sets of numeral data, 2 sets are paired and a
third is independent of the other two. For each of these sets I have
obtained their basic statistics (mean, median, stdv, range ...).  
Now I want to compare if these sets differ. I could compare the mean
doing a basic T test . However, I was looking for a test to compare
the medians using R.  If that is possible I would love to hear the
specifics.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Regards,


pedro reche
