maxyoudencut function
The maxyoudencut function returns the value which maximizes the youden index of the ROC curve defined by column1 and by the class attclass.
The default value for the class attribute (if more than two values are present) can be specified as the optional parameter defclass.
The computation can be performed according to the groups defined in the group parameter, if required.
