flag_implicit_significance

PURPOSE ^

The use of FLAG_IMPLICIT_SIGNIFICANCE is in experimental state.

SYNOPSIS ^

function alpha=flag_implicit_significance(i)

DESCRIPTION ^

 The use of FLAG_IMPLICIT_SIGNIFICANCE is in experimental state. 
 flag_implicit_significance might even become obsolete.

 FLAG_IMPLICIT_SIGNIFICANCE sets and gets default alpha (level) of any significance test
 The default alpha-level is stored in the global variable FLAG_implicit_significance
 The idea is that the significance must not be assigned explicitely. 
 This might yield more readable code. 

 Choose alpha low enough, because in alpha*100% of the cases, you will 
 reject the Null hypothesis just by change. For this reason, the default
 alpha is 0.01. 
 
   flag_implicit_significance(0.01) 
    sets the alpha-level for the significance test
 
 alpha = flag_implicit_significance()
     gets default alpha

 flag_implicit_significance(alpha)
     sets default alpha-level

 alpha = flag_implicit_significance(alpha)
    gets and sets alpha 

 features:
 - compatible to Matlab and Octave
