Description

bs() creates a bootstrap confidence interval and is used in chapter 14 of "Applied Nonparametric Statistical Methods" (5th edition)

Usage

bs(x, y = NULL, CI.width = 0.95, nsims.bs = 10000, seed = NULL)

Arguments

x

Numeric vector

y

Numeric vector or NULL (defaults to NULL)

CI.width

Confidence interval width (defaults to 0.95)

nsims.bs

Number of bootstrap samples to be taken (defaults to 10000)

seed

Random number seed to be used for Monte Carlo simulations (defaults to NULL)

Value

A list object object with the results from applying the function

Examples
