Wilk's Lambda for n-group multiple comparisons

To compute Wilk's Lambda statistic for multivariate analysis of variance and multiple comparisons.

Wilksn(Y, class, type = c("Tukey", "Dunnett", "Sequence"), base = 1)

`Y`	Data matrix; row is sample; each column is variable(gene).
`class`	Vector defining the clinical outcome of the samples.
`type`	Type of contrast
`base`	An integer to denote which group is considered the baseline group for Dunnett contrasts.

Wilk's Lambdas for MANOVA and multiple comparisons are returned.
