sets and gets default alpha (level) of any significance test
alpha = flag_impl_significance() flag_impl_significance(alpha) alpha = flag_impl_significance(alpha)
alpha-level for the significance test. Default is 0.01.
The use of FLAG_IMPLICIT_SIGNIFICANCE is in experimental state. flag_impl_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.
