This ddof parameter specifies the decrease in the number of degrees of freedom similar to the ddof parameter in scipy.stats.chisquare allowing users to change the number of degrees of freedom used to calculate p-values. This is important when the distribution probabilities are calculated using parameters from measured data (e.g., mean and sample standard deviation).

This addresses the comment by nalimilan that the inserted explanation of ddof breaks up the comment on the `x` and `y` vectors.

Resolves #266
This change adds a new keyword parameter
ddoftoPowerDivergenceTestandChisqTestallowing users to change the number of degrees of freedom used for calculating p-values. This works the same as theddofparameter in scipy.stats.chisquare. See the documentation for that function athttps://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/generated/scipy.stats.chisquare.html.
The
ddofvalue defaults to 0 (no changes to the degrees of freedom). A supplied value forddofdecreases the number of degrees of freedom by the value ofddof. This is important when the distribution probabilities are calculated using parameters from measured data (e.g., mean and sample standard deviation), reducing the number of degrees of freedom.I updated the docstrings for
PowerDivergenceTestandChisqTestand added a test forChisqTestwithddof=2totest/power_divergence.jl. (It passes.)
