"""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 ?
