Identify the number of differentially methylated cases.

1	calculateNbDiffCase(nbCase, propDiff, propDiffSd)

`nbCase`	a positive `integer`, the number of cases.
`propDiff`	a `double` superior to `0` and inferior or equal to `1`, the mean value for the proportion of samples that will have, for a specific position, differentially methylated values. It can be interpreted as the penetrance.
`propDiffSd`	a non-negative `double`, the standard deviation associated to the `propDiff`

a integer, the number of differentially methylated cases.
