specificityTest: Specificity test

In GranderLab/ClusterSignificanceExtras: A package allowing re-creation of all figures in the publication associated with the ClusterSignificance package

Description

This function performs the specificity test. This test is designed to determine the true negative rate of the Pcp method. To do this we utilize the hundred dataset which was derived using the zeroOrHundred function with argument overlap=100. The dataset includes matrices where the group's range overlap is 100 anticipate that no significant seperations should be found with Pcp. For each matrice, the permute function is run, using the Pcp method afterwhich, the resulting pvalue is recorded.

Arguments

interval	The interval of points amounts that should be tested. i.e. 1 tests points amounts 1:100, 10 tests seq(1, 100, 10), etc.
iterations	The number of iterations for each call to permute.
cores	The number of cores the test should be parallalized with.
save	Should the output be saved?
verbose	Should the function be verbose?
outPath	The location the file should be saved to if save=TRUE.
