Binomial confidence limits
Description
Calculates binomial confidence limits using the Wilson approximation.
Usage
binciW(x,n,alpha=0.05,cc=FALSE)
Arguments
x |
The number of successes or failures for which the CI is to be calculated. |
n |
The number of trials as above. |
alpha |
The desired coverage - 0.05 produces 95 percent coverage |
cc |
Whether to apply a continuity correction |
Details
‘binciW’ calculates binomial confidence limits for the given number of successes and trials. It is mainly to allow binomial confidence limits to be calculated in the ‘brkdnNest’ function, which is why the upper and lower CIs are called separately.
Value
The lower and upper binomial confidence limits
