r"""The Distance Covariance (dCov) test
Apply the Distance Covariance (dCov) test of independence to `x` and `y`.
This test was introduced in [1]_, and is based on the distance covariance
statistic. The test is applicable to random vectors of arbitrary length
(see the notes section for more details).
Parameters
----------
x : array_like, 1-D or 2-D
If `x` is 1-D than it is assumed to be a vector of observations of a
single random variable. If `x` is 2-D than the rows should be
observations and the columns are treated as the components of a
random vector, i.e., each column represents a different component of
the random vector `x`.
y : array_like, 1-D or 2-D
Same as `x`, but only the number of observation has to match that of
`x`. If `y` is 2-D note that the number of columns of `y` (i.e., the
number of components in the random vector) does not need to match
the number of columns in `x`.
B : int, optional, default=`None`
The number of iterations to perform when evaluating the null
distribution of the test statistic when the `emp` method is
applied (see below). if `B` is `None` than as in [1]_ we set
`B` to be ``B = 200 + 5000/n``, where `n` is the number of
observations.
method : {'auto', 'emp', 'asym'}, optional, default=auto
The method by which to obtain the p-value for the test.
- `auto` : Default method. The number of observations will be used to
determine the method.
- `emp` : Empirical evaluation of the p-value using permutations of
the rows of `y` to obtain the null distribution.
- `asym` : An asymptotic approximation of the distribution of the test
statistic is used to find the p-value.
Returns
-------
test_statistic : float
The value of the test statistic used in the test.
pval : float
The p-value.
chosen_method : str
The method that was used to obtain the p-value. Mostly relevant when
the function is called with `method='auto'`.
Notes
-----
The test applies to random vectors of arbitrary dimensions, i.e., `x`
can be a 1-D vector of observations for a single random variable while
`y` can be a `k` by `n` 2-D array (where `k > 1`). In other words, it
is also possible for `x` and `y` to both be 2-D arrays and have the
same number of rows (observations) while differing in the number of
columns.
As noted in [1]_ the statistics are sensitive to all types of departures
from independence, including nonlinear or nonmonotone dependence
structure.
