1D Independence Testing Power vs. Sample Size

Here, we show finite testing power comparisons between the various tests within hyppo. For a test to be consistent, we would expect power to converge to 1 as sample size increases. Tests that converge to 1 quicker have higher finite testing power and are likely better to use for your use case. The simulation in the bottom right is used so that we know that we are properly controlling for type I error, which is important becase otherwise the test would be invalid (power = alpha-level = 0.05).
