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
