/**
* The Shaffer Static Correction uses logical relationships to tighten up the
* Bonferroni/Sidak corrections when performing pairwise multiple hypothesis
* comparisons. This is uniformly tighter bound than the Bonferroni/Sidak
* values and also uniformly tighter than the Holm correction. The original
* algorithm proposed by Shaffer appears to grow super exponentially as
* O(2^(N^2)), where N is the number of treatments. We have pre-computed
* various quantities and used caching to minimize the amount of repeated
* recursion and it appears that the runtime grows as O(N^4), where N is the
* number of treatments. Since there are N(N-1)/2 comparisons, this quantity
* is quadratic in the number of comparisons. This means the computation is
* reasonable for N=90 (4005 comparisons). However, the algorithm seems
* to slow down significantly above N=100 (4950 comparisons) or so.
* This implementation uses the slightly tighter Sidak correction,
* as opposed to the standard Bonferroni correction.
*
* For example, if you have three hypothesis you are testing,
* then there is no way that there can be 2 true hypotheses. (Because u1=u2 and
* u2=u3 and therefore u1=u3.) With this logic, Shaffer Static correction
* can greatly reduce the false-negative rate while not impacting the
* false-discovery rate.
