public interface SignificanceTest

Defines the interface for significance tests.

A significance test requires a null hypothesis (usually regarding some parameter of one or more population distributions), and calculation of a test statistic from one or more samples of data. The test statistic corresponds to a significance probability (SP) that measures the extent to which the data support the null hypothesis. The greater the SP, the more the data support the null hypothesis.
