#' The required sample size for testing a null hyphotesis for a double difference of proportions
#' @description
#' This function returns the minimum sample size required for testing a null hyphotesis regarding a double difference of proportions.
#' @details
#' We assume that it is of interest to test the following set of hyphotesis:
#' \deqn{H_0: (mu_1 - mu_2) - (mu_3 - mu_4) = 0 \ \ \ \ vs. \ \ \ \ H_a: (mu_1 - mu_2) - (mu_3 - mu_4) = D \neq 0 }
#' Note that the minimun sample size, restricted to the predefined power \eqn{\beta} and confidence \eqn{1-\alpha},
#' is defined by:
#' \deqn{n = \frac{S^2}{\frac{D^2}{(z_{1-\alpha} + z_{\beta})^2}+\frac{S^2}{N}}}
#' where \eqn{S^2=(\sigma_1^2 + \sigma_2^2 + \sigma_3^2 + \sigma_4^2) * (1 - (T * R)) * DEFF}

#' @param N The maximun population size between the groups (strata) that we want to compare.
#' @param mu1 The value of the estimated mean of the variable of interes for the first population.
#' @param mu2 The value of the estimated mean of the variable of interes for the second population.
#' @param mu3 The value of the estimated mean of the variable of interes for the third population.
#' @param mu4 The value of the estimated mean of the variable of interes for the fourth population.
#' @param sigma1 The value of the estimated variance of the variable of interes for the first population.
#' @param sigma2 The value of the estimated mean of a variable of interes for the second population.
#' @param sigma3 The value of the estimated variance of the variable of interes for the third population.
#' @param sigma4 The value of the estimated mean of a variable of interes for the fourth population.
#' @param T The overlap between waves. By default \code{T = 0}.
#' @param R The correlation between waves. By default \code{R = 1}.
#' @param D The minimun effect to test.
#' @param DEFF The design effect of the sample design. By default \code{DEFF = 1}, which corresponds to a simple random sampling design.
#' @param conf The statistical confidence. By default \code{conf = 0.95}.
#' @param power The statistical power. By default \code{power = 0.80}.
#' @param plot Optionally plot the effect against the sample size.
