\title{Poisson Margin Test}
\description{
  Computes p-values for two sets of counts using the Poisson Margin Test.
}
\usage{
pmt(a, b)
}
\arguments{
  \item{a}{
    Vector of counts
}
  \item{b}{
    Vector of counts
}
  \item{two.sided}{
    If false tests the one-sided hypothesis that b > a. NA will be returned
    for indices which are untestable.
}
  \item{signed}{
    Set sign of returned log10 p-values to direction of change when doing a
    two-sided test. Return value will be positive for b > a and negative for
    a > b.
\details{
  This function computes the Poisson Margin Test (PMT) for two sets of counts.
}
\value{
  A vector of log10 p-values is returned, corresponding to the input vectors.
}
