Two Sample Permutation Test
This function computes the p-value for the two sample t-test using a permutation test. The permutation density can also be plotted.

Suppose we have n1 values in one group and n2 in a second, with n = n1 + n2. The permutation distribution results from taking all possible samples of n2 values from the total of n values.
The p-value for the test of the hypothesis that the mean of
x1 differs from x2
