vqf/mtest: Direct statistical test to compare multinomial trials

This package contains functions to compare multinomial trials under the null hypothesis that each state has the same probability in every experiment. In a multinomial trial, the probability of each state is exptected to be the same in every measure. This corresponds to random extraction of colored balls from an urn with replacement. Each experiment would consist of a number of extractions. The package offers a statistical test to ask whether the result is compatible with the null hypothesis that the probability of extracting each color is the same in all the experiments. The algorithm of mtest is similar to that of Barnard's test, but the nuisance parameter is integrated over all possible values under the null hypothesis.
