From a vector of denominator degrees of freedom from independent t-statistics (nu
),
the denominator degrees of freedom for the corresponding F-test is computed.
get_Fstat_ddf(nu, tol = 1e-08)
the denominator degrees of freedom; a numerical scalar
vector of denominator degrees of freedom for the t-statistics
tolerance on the consecutive differences between elements of nu to determine if mean(nu) should be returned

Note that if any nu <= 2
then 2
is returned. Also, if all nu
are within tol
of each other the simple average of the nu-vector is returned.
This is to avoid downward bias.
