BinaryExactCI: Exact Confidence interval for Binary Proportion

In RBesT: R Bayesian Evidence Synthesis Tools

Exact Confidence interval for Binary Proportion

Description

This function calculates the exact confidendence interval for a response rate presented by n and r.

Usage

BinaryExactCI(r, n, alpha = 0.05, drop = TRUE)

Arguments

r	Number of success or responder
n	Sample size
alpha	confidence level
drop	Determines if drop() will be called on the result

Details

Confidence intervals are obtained by a procedure first given in Clopper and Pearson (1934). This guarantees that the confidence level is at least (1-\alpha).

Details can be found in the publication listed below.

Value

100 (1-\alpha)\ response rate
