binciWl: Lower binomial confidence limit
Description
Calculates a lower binomial confidence limit using the Wilson approximation.Usage
binciWl(x,n,alpha=0.05,trueval=NA,na.rm=TRUE)
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
trueval
The value representing the outcome of interest for the CI.
na.rm
Argument needed to make this work
Value
- The lower binomial confidence limit
Details
binciWl calculates the lower binomial confidence limit 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 calculated separately.
