Test for equal means in two or more samples from the normal distribution.
If the keyword parameter <equal_var> is true then the variances are assumed to be equal, otherwise they are not assumed to be equal (default).
Return test statistic and the p-value giving the probability of error if the null hypothesis (equal means) is rejected at this value.
