## Perform a F-test for equal variances.
##
## If the second argument @var{y} is a vector, a paired-t test of the
## hypothesis @code{mean (@var{x}) = mean (@var{y})} is performed.
##
## The argument @qcode{"alpha"} can be used to specify the significance level
## of the test (the default value is 0.05).  The string
## argument @qcode{"tail"}, can be used to select the desired alternative
## hypotheses.  If @qcode{"alt"} is @qcode{"both"} (default) the null is 
## tested against the two-sided alternative @code{mean (@var{x}) != @var{m}}.
## If @qcode{"alt"} is @qcode{"right"} the one-sided 
## alternative @code{mean (@var{x}) > @var{m}} is considered.
## Similarly for @qcode{"left"}, the one-sided alternative @code{mean
## (@var{x}) < @var{m}} is considered.  When @qcode{"vartype"} is @qcode{"equal"}
## the variances are assumed to be equal (this is the default).  When
## @qcode{"vartype"} is @qcode{"unequal"} the variances are not assumed equal.
## When argument @var{x} is a matrix the @qcode{"dim"} argument can be 
## used to selection the dimension over which to perform the test.
## (The default is the first non-singleton dimension.)
##
## If @var{h} is 0 the null hypothesis is accepted, if it is 1 the null
## hypothesis is rejected. The p-value of the test is returned in @var{pval}.
## A 100(1-alpha)% confidence interval is returned in @var{ci}. @var{stats}
## is a structure containing the value of the test statistic (@var{tstat}),
## the degrees of freedom (@var{df}) and the sample standard deviation
## (@var{sd}).
