**What it does**

This program computes the q-values based on the p-values of multiple simultaneous tests. The q-values are computed using a specific R package, created by John Storey and Alan Dabney, called "qvalue". The program takes five inputs:
 
- The first input is a TABULAR format file consisting of one column only that represents the p-values of multiple simultaneous tests, one line for every p-value. 
- The second input is the lambda parameter. The user can choose either the default: seq(0, 0.95, 0.05) or a decimal number between 0.0 and 1.0.
- The third input is PI method which is either "smoother" or "bootstrap".
- The fourth input is the FDR (false discovery rate) level which is a decimal number between 0.0 and 1.0.
- The fifth input is either TRUE or FALSE for the estimate robustness. 

The program gives two outputs:

- The first output is a TABULAR format file consisting of three columns: 

 - the left column represents the p-values of multiple simultaneous tests, one line for every p-value
 - the middle column represents the q-values corresponding to the p-values
 - the third column represent the significance values, either 1 for significant or 0 for non-significant 

- The second output is a PDF format file consisting of three pages: 

 - the first page represents the p-values histogram
 - the second page represents the q-values histogram
 - the third page represents the four Q-plots as introduced in the "qvalue" package manual.
  

**Example**

Let us have the first input file of p-values as follows::

	0.140627492
	0.432249886
	0.122120877
	0.142010182
	0.012909858

	0.904129283
	0.031152635

Running the program will give the following output::

	pi0: 0.140311054	

	FDR level: 0.05
