estBetaAlpha: Estimate the alpha parameter of a Beta distribution
In belleau/methylInheritanceSim: Simulating Whole-Genome Inherited Bisulphite Sequencing Data

Estimate the alpha parameter from the mean and the variance of a Beta distribution.

1	estBetaAlpha(meanCtrl, varCtrl, minVal = 1e-06)

`meanCtrl`	a `double`, the mean of the controls (CTRL) at a specific CpG site.
`varCtrl`	a `double`, the variance of the controls (CTRL) at a specific CpG site.
`minVal`	a `double`, the minimum value accepted for the mean value. If `meanCtrl` is smaller than `minVal`, then `minVal` is used in the calculation of the alpha parameter. Default: `1e-06`.

a double, the alpha parameter of a Beta distribution.
