NormalIndPower.power(effect_size, nobs1, alpha, ratio=1, alternative='two-sided') [source]
 
Calculate the power of a z-test for two independent sample    
Parameters:

 
effect_size (float) – standardized effect size, difference between the two means divided by the standard deviation. effect size has to be positive. 
nobs1 (int or float) – number of observations of sample 1. The number of observations of sample two is ratio times the size of sample 1, i.e. nobs2 = nobs1 * ratio ratio can be set to zero in order to get the power for a one sample test. 
alpha (float in interval (0,1)) – significance level, e.g. 0.05, is the probability of a type I error, that is wrong rejections if the Null Hypothesis is true. 
ratio (float) – ratio of the number of observations in sample 2 relative to sample 1. see description of nobs1 
alternative (string, 'two-sided' (default), 'larger', 'smaller') – extra argument to choose whether the power is calculated for a two-sided (default) or one sided test. The one-sided test can be either ‘larger’, ‘smaller’.    
Returns:

power – Power of the test, e.g. 0.8, is one minus the probability of a type II error. Power is the probability that the test correctly rejects the Null Hypothesis if the Alternative Hypothesis is true.   
Return type:

float
