ksmirnov Test

[Gary Sean]

Dear,

Can I use ksmirnov one sample test for uniform distribution (see below)?

ksmirnov X = uniform()

If not, would you recommend an appropriate test for the comparison of distribution with uniform distribution?

Thank you in advance,

[Nick Cox]

quantile

is in effect such a test in the best sense of the word.

clear
set obs 100
set seed 2803
gen y = runiform()
quantile y

Note that repeating that exercise -- several times -- for your sample size -- gives a better feel of the variability of uniform distributions than any P-value ever will.
