## usage: [pval, f, df_num, df_den] = f_test_regression (y, X, R [, r])
##
## Performs an F test for the null hypothesis R * b = r in a classical
## normal regression model y = X * b + e.
##
## Under the null, the test statistic f follows an F distribution with
## df_num and df_den degrees of freedom; pval is the p-value (1 minus
## the CDF of this distribution at f) of the test.
##
## If not given explicitly, r = 0.
##
## If no output argument is given, the p-value is displayed.
