Usage:

  stouffer -prefix output.file.name -input here.is.a.list.of.input.files

Input files contain Z-statistic values, typically derived from multiple
studies. T-statistic values may also be used if the degrees of freedom
are sufficiently large (e.g., ≥30); otherwise, they should first be
converted to Z-statistics. The output is a Z-statistic reflecting the
pooled evidence across studies. The sample sizes for the individual
studies are assumed to roughly equal.
