The Agresti-Caffo confidence interval for the difference between probabilities

Described in Chapter 4 "The 2x2 Table"

AgrestiCaffo_CI_2x2(n, alpha = 0.05)

Arguments

n

the observed counts (a 2x2 matrix)

alpha

the nominal level, e.g. 0.05 for 95% CIs

Value

An object of the contingencytables_result class, basically a subclass of base::list(). Use the utils::str() function to see the specific elements returned.

Examples
