[R] correlation between nominal and ordinal

[merlinverdecia at infomed.sld.cu]

I would be very grateful if you would tell me how I can find the  
degree of correlation between a nominal dependent variable and an  
independent ordinal variable. The nominal variable has only two  
levels: YES and NO.
thank you very much in advance
regards,
merlin
