optimalC: Derive the optimal c

In popKorn: For interval estimation of mean of selected populations

Description

Derives the optimal c value for a given lambda.

Usage

optimalC(lambda, alpha = 0.05, min.loc = "infty", n, p, k = 1,
  var.known = TRUE)

Arguments

lambda	The value of lambda under consideration. This must be a vector with values between 0 and 1.
alpha	The desired confidence coefficient.
min.loc	The location of the minimum, either at 'zero' or 'infty'.
n	The number of replications per population.
p	The number of populations considered. This must be present if min.loc is equal to 'zero'.
k	The number of populations selected.
var.known	A logical flag indicating if the variance of the observations is known exactly. It is TRUE by default.

Details

This function will choose the correct equation to use for and use 'uniroot' to find the c-value that corresponds to the desired alpha-level.

Value

The function returns a vector of length equal to that of lambda.
