#' Absolute Relative Risk and confidence interval
#'
#' This is a function to conveniently and quickly compute
#' the absolute relative risk (ARR) and its confidence interval.
#'
#' @param expPos Number of positive events in the experimental condition.
#' @param expN Total number of cases in the experimental condition.
#' @param conPos Number of positive events in the control condition.
#' @param conN Total number of cases in the control condition.
#' @param conf.level The confidence level for the confidence interval.
#' @param digits The number of digits to round to when printing the results.
#' @param printAsPercentage Whether to multiply with 100 when printing the results.
#' @param x The result of the call to `arr`.
#' @param ... Any additional arguments are neglected.
#'
#' @return An object with in `estimate`, the ARR, and in `conf.int`, the
#' confidence interval.
#' @rdname arr
