Most of the changes in this file should move to test-cube-pairwise, but I wanted to make the changes more evident in the pr.

These could be re-written as
cubify(0, dims = list(c("a", "b", "c", "d"), c("a", "b", "c", "d")))
and
cubify(1, dims = list(c("a", "b", "c", "d"), c("a", "b", "c", "d")))
respectively (and most or all other structure(...) calls could be as well)

should they? is cubify preferred for developer readability? As only an occasional contributor I wasn’t clear on what cubify did and structure was clearer to me ”this is the reference object”. Can change if you like.

I find cubify to be a bit more readable, and it saves arguments — it's not necessary of course but those structures stood out to me and I had to copy/paste them and run them to confirm they were doing what they were doing.

It's not relevant for these two, but for the ones that are not a single value it also would be nice if the line breaks matched the rows breaks to make it easier to read. I found myself having to mentally find the diagonal and shift forward/back from there to see where I was in the matrix.

Am I reading this right that we're changing the behavior of compareCols() from returning z-scores for each cell (like zScores() does) to returning the return value from chisq.test? Is there any reason not to include stdres in the allowed value parameters so that it can return what we have been already returning?

My suspicion from talking to a few of the offices about this is that the p-value derived from those z-scores are what people are thinking they want when they compare one column against another (and the same in the pair-wise compare all columns case).

Also, if we are transitioning away from z-scores to just providing the test statistic we should match that behavior elsewhere. I'm not certain we actually want to make that transition, however.

To add:

The null hypothesis is that all of the rows (or columns) are equal to each other. The test statistic matrix that is returned when requested is a measure of closeness between the pair of rows (or columns) given by their names. The p-value matrix that is returned are similarly the probabilities of finding the observed or more extreme results while the null hypothesis is true for each pair of rows (or columns).

The null hypothesis is that for each pair of rows (or columns) those two specific rows (or columns) in the pair are equal to each other. The test statistic matrix that is returned when requested is a measure of closeness between the pair of rows (or columns) given by their names. The p-value matrix that is returned are similarly the probabilities of finding the observed or more extreme results while the null hypothesis is true for each pair of rows (or columns).
