Description

Found in javadoc comment of method :
public double tTest( X, X )
'For a one-sided test, divide the returned value by 2.'

But found in javadoc comment for method :
public boolean tTest( X, X, double alpha)
'To perform a 1-sided test, use <code>alpha / 2</code>'

where it should be:
'To perform a 1-sided test, use <code>alpha * 2</code>'

confirmed by code of the boolean valued function:
return (tTest(sampleStats1, sampleStats2) < alpha);
