Blaker_exact_test_1x2 {contingencytables}

The Blaker exact test

Description

The Blaker exact test for the binomial probability (pi) H_0: pi = pi0 vs H_A: pi ~= pi0 (two-sided) Described in Chapter 2 "The 1x2 Table and the Binomial Distribution"

Usage

Blaker_exact_test_1x2(X, n, pi0)

Arguments

X

the number of successes

n

the total number of observations

pi0

a given probability

Value

An object of the contingencytables_result class, basically a subclass of base::list(). Use the utils::str() function to see the specific elements returned.
