"""Statistical power, solving for nobs, ... - trial version
Created on Sat Jan 12 21:48:06 2013
Author: Josef Perktold
Example
roundtrip - root with respect to all variables
calculated, desired
nobs 33.367204205 33.367204205
effect 0.5 0.5
alpha 0.05 0.05
power 0.8 0.8
TODO:
refactoring
- rename beta -> power, beta (type 2 error is beta = 1-power) DONE
- I think the current implementation can handle any kinds of extra keywords
(except for maybe raising meaningful exceptions
- streamline code, I think internally classes can be merged
how to extend to k-sample tests?
user interface for different tests that map to the same (internal) test class
- sequence of arguments might be inconsistent,
arg and/or kwds so python checks what's required and what can be None.
- templating for docstrings ?

Plot power with number of observations or effect size on x-axis
Parameters
----------
dep_var : {'nobs', 'effect_size', 'alpha'}
This specifies which variable is used for the horizontal axis.
If dep_var='nobs' (default), then one curve is created for each
value of ``effect_size``. If dep_var='effect_size' or alpha, then
one curve is created for each value of ``nobs``.
nobs : {scalar, array_like}
specifies the values of the number of observations in the plot
effect_size : {scalar, array_like}
specifies the values of the effect_size in the plot
alpha : {float, array_like}
The significance level (type I error) used in the power
calculation. Can only be more than a scalar, if ``dep_var='alpha'``
ax : None or axis instance
If ax is None, than a matplotlib figure is created. If ax is a
matplotlib axis instance, then it is reused, and the plot elements
are created with it.
title : str
title for the axis. Use an empty string, ``''``, to avoid a title.
plt_kwds : {None, dict}

kwds : dict
These remaining keyword arguments are used as arguments to the
power function. Many power function support ``alternative`` as a
keyword argument, two-sample test support ``ratio``.

Figure
If `ax` is None, the created figure. Otherwise the figure to which
`ax` is connected.
Notes
-----
This works only for classes where the ``power`` method has
``effect_size``, ``nobs`` and ``alpha`` as the first three arguments.
If the second argument is ``nobs1``, then the number of observations

alternative : str, 'two-sided' (default) or 'one-sided'

The function uses scipy.optimize for finding the value that satisfies
the power equation. It first uses ``brentq`` with a prior search for
bounds. If this fails to find a root, ``fsolve`` is used. If ``fsolve``
also fails, then, for ``alpha``, ``power`` and ``effect_size``,
``brentq`` with fixed bounds is used. However, there can still be cases

'''solve for any one parameter of the power of a two sample z-test
for z-test the keywords are:
effect_size, nobs1, alpha, power, ratio
exactly one needs to be ``None``, all others need numeric values
Parameters
----------
effect_size : float
standardized effect size, difference between the two means divided
by the standard deviation.
If ratio=0, then this is the standardized mean in the one sample
test.
nobs1 : int or float
number of observations of sample 1. The number of observations of
sample two is ratio times the size of sample 1,
i.e. ``nobs2 = nobs1 * ratio``
``ratio`` can be set to zero in order to get the power for a
one sample test.
alpha : float in interval (0,1)
significance level, e.g. 0.05, is the probability of a type I
error, that is wrong rejections if the Null Hypothesis is true.
power : float in interval (0,1)
power of the test, e.g. 0.8, is one minus the probability of a
type II error. Power is the probability that the test correctly
rejects the Null Hypothesis if the Alternative Hypothesis is true.
ratio : float
ratio of the number of observations in sample 2 relative to
sample 1. see description of nobs1
The default for ratio is 1; to solve for ration given the other
arguments it has to be explicitly set to None.
alternative : str, 'two-sided' (default), 'larger', 'smaller'
extra argument to choose whether the power is calculated for a
two-sided (default) or one sided test. The one-sided test can be
either 'larger', 'smaller'.
Returns
-------
value : float
The value of the parameter that was set to None in the call. The
value solves the power equation given the remaining parameters.
Notes
-----
The function uses scipy.optimize for finding the value that satisfies
the power equation. It first uses ``brentq`` with a prior search for
bounds. If this fails to find a root, ``fsolve`` is used. If ``fsolve``
also fails, then, for ``alpha``, ``power`` and ``effect_size``,
``brentq`` with fixed bounds is used. However, there can still be cases
where this fails.
