## @deftypefn {Function File} {[@var{pval}, @var{ks}, @var{d}] =} kolmogorov_smirnov_test_2 (@var{x}, @var{y}, @var{alt})
## Perform a 2-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test of the null hypothesis that the
## samples @var{x} and @var{y} come from the same (continuous) distribution.
##
## If F and G are the CDFs corresponding to the @var{x} and @var{y} samples,
## respectively, then the null is that F == G.
##
## With the optional argument string @var{alt}, the alternative of interest
## can be selected.  If @var{alt} is @qcode{"!="} or @qcode{"<>"}, the null
## is tested against the two-sided alternative F != G@.  In this case, the
## test statistic @var{ks} follows a two-sided Kolmogorov-Smirnov
## distribution.  If @var{alt} is @qcode{">"}, the one-sided alternative F >
## G is considered.  Similarly for @qcode{"<"}, the one-sided alternative F <
## G is considered.  In this case, the test statistic @var{ks} has a
## one-sided Kolmogorov-Smirnov distribution.  The default is the two-sided
## case.
##
## The p-value of the test is returned in @var{pval}.
##
## The third returned value, @var{d}, is the test statistic, the maximum
## vertical distance between the two cumulative distribution functions.
##
## If no output argument is given, the p-value is displayed.
