|
N1 |
size of Sample 1 |
N2 |
size of sample 2 |
EPS |
noninferiority margin to the difference of success probabilities |
SW |
width of the search grid for determining the maximum of the rejection probability on the common boundary of the hypotheses |
NSUB |
number of subintervals for partitioning the range of integration |
ALPHA |
target significance level |
MAXH |
maximum number of interval halving steps to be carried out in finding the maximally admissible nominal level |
The program uses 96-point Gauss-Legendre quadrature on each of the NSUB intervals into which the range of integration is partitioned.
