## usage: [pval, chisq, df] = mcnemar_test (x)
##
## For a square contingency table x of data cross-classified on the row
## and column variables, McNemar's test can be used for testing the null
## hypothesis of symmetry of the classification probabilities.
##
## Under the null, chisq is approximately distributed as chisquare with
## df degrees of freedom, and pval is the p-value (1 minus the CDF of
## this distribution at chisq) of the test.
##
## If no output argument is given, the p-value of the test is displayed.
