Verification of analytic theory via MATLAB simulation.

Allele frequency (p)	Fitness dominance (k)	Sample size (n)	Significance (α)	Expected power (1-β)	Observed power (simulated)

Sample sizes were obtained from equations (11) and (12); for each parameter set, true post-selection genotype frequencies were obtained from equations (5), (6), and (7); sample genotype counts were then generated via multinomial sampling, and chi-square tests were performed; MATLAB simulations were run 10000 times for each parameter set, and the proportion of tests that resulted in detectable DHW were recorded.
