The R function „brw” is related to the article

Reiczigel J, Zakariás I, Rózsa L, A bootstrap test of stochastic equality of two populations,
The American Statistician, 59(2), 156-161 (2005).

The function performs a bootstrap test for

H₀: P(X < Y) = P(X > Y)

against

H₁: P(X < Y) ¹ P(X > Y)

based on two independent samples for X and Y, respectively. The function uses the library „boot” by Davison and Hinkley.

For further details see the readme file.
