Equivalence for multiple endpoints

Description

The package provides tests and confidence intervals for comparing two treatments when there is more than one primary response variable (endpoint). The step-up procedure of Quan et al. (2001) is both applied for differences and extended to ratios of means of normally distributed data with equal group variances. A related single-step procedure is also available.
