Quantile-quantile plot for univariate t distribution

Calculates empirical quantiles of univariate data and theoretical quantiles of a t distribution with a given degrees-of-freedom

qqplot.t(x, dof, print = FALSE)

`x`	a vector or column matrix for data
`dof`	a numerical value for degrees-of-freedom
`print`	a logical variable, if `"print = TRUE"` empirical and theoretical quantiles are reported and the user can use them to draw a new plot

a list of output is returned if "print = TRUE"
