The $t$-based confidence interval is commonly used in
estimating population mean using sample data. It is based
on Student's $t$ distribution, an adaptation of the
standard normal distribution. n_t1samp_interval
provides tools for calculating and illustrating the sample
size requirement and other design factors associated with
these intervals.
1 2 | n_t1samp_interval(E = NULL, n = NULL, s = NULL, alpha = 0.05,
optim.max = 1e+09)
|
E |
Margin of error |
n |
Sample size |
s |
Sample standard deviation |
alpha |
Significance level (or 1-confidence) |
optim.max |
Maximum value for |
Exactly one of the parameters n
, E
, s
and alpha
must be passed as NULL
, and that
parameter will be calculated from the others. Notice that
alpha
has a non-NULL
default, so NULL
must be explicitly passed if you want it computed.
Returns an object of class HazPwr
with subclasses
t1samp
and est
(actual appearance:
t1samp_est_HazPwr
. The object contains a data frame
of the parameters passed to the function (expanded using
expand.grid
) and the corresponding sample size
estimates.
n_est
: Exact sample size. When
n
is not NULL
, this will be identical to
n
.
n
: Estimated sample size; the next
largest integer after n_est
.
E
: Margin
of error
s
: Sample Standard Deviation
alpha
: Desired significance level.
