% results_struct = geweke_chi2_test(results1,results2,results_struct,options)
% PURPOSE: computes Geweke's chi-squared test for two sets of MCMC sample draws
%
% INPUTS 
%   results1         [1 by (4+n_taper*2) vector] vector with post. mean,
%                           std, NSE_iid, RNE_iid, and tapered NSE and RNE
%                           for chain part 1
%   results2         [1 by (4+n_taper*2) vector] vector with post. mean,
%                           std, NSE_iid, RNE_iid, and tapered NSE and RNE
%                           for chain part 2
%   results_struct   [structure] results structure generated by geweke_moments
%   Dynareoptions    [structure]
%
% OUTPUTS 
%   results_struct   [structure]  containing the following fields:
%       pooled_mean               Pooled mean of the chain parts, weighted
%                                   with precision
%       rpooled_nse               Pooled NSE of the chain parts, weighted
%                                   with precision
%       prob_chi2_test            p-value of Chi2-test for equality of
%                                   means in both chain parts
