bci1: Bayesian credible interval when n=1

In nisone: Inference for Samples of Size at Least One

Bayesian credible interval when n=1

Description

Suppose X \sim N(\mu, \sigma^2). This gives you credible intervals of a specified level when we use prior \sigma = |\mu| with probability 1, and \pi(\mu) = |\mu - A|^{-1}. See the n1post() for access to the full posterior distribution.

Usage

bci1(x, A = 0, level = 0.95)

Arguments

x	a double
A	The prior center.
level	The level of the credible interval

Value

The credible interval of the specified level.
