probPOSx: Bayesian posterior Probabilities

In proportion: Inference on Single Binomial Proportion and Bayesian Computations

Description

Bayesian posterior Probabilities

Usage

probPOSx(x, n, a, b, th)

Arguments

x	- Number of successes
n	- Number of trials
a	- Prior Parameters
b	- Prior Parameters
th	- Theta value seeking Pr(Theta/X < th)

Details

Computes probability of the event p < p0 (p0 is specified in [0, 1]) based on posterior distribution of Beta-Binomial model with given parameters for prior Beta distribution for all x = 0, 1, 2......n where n is the number of trials

Value

A dataframe with

x	Number of successes
PosProb	Posterior probability
