## usage: [pval, Tsq] = hotelling_test (x, m)
##
## For a sample x from a multivariate normal distribution with unknown
## mean and covariance matrix, test the null hypothesis that mean (x) ==
## m.
##
## Tsq is Hotelling's T^2. Under the null, (n-p) T^2 / (p(n-1)) has an
## F distribution with p and n-p degrees of freedom, where n and p are
## the numbers of samples and variables, respectively.
##
## pval is the p-value of the test.
##
## If no output argument is given, the p-value of the test is displayed.
