Confidence Interval

The following confidence interval applies when pooling is not in effect. α is the level of significance. The value 100 (1 – α) % is the confidence level.

The following shows the meaning of each item in the case of list data specification.

Data .............................

data type

C-Level ........................

confidence level (0 < C-Level < 1)

List(1) ...........................

list whose contents you want to use as data of sample 1

 

(List 1 to 26)

List(2) ...........................

list whose contents you want to use as data of sample 2

 

(List 1 to 26)

Freq(1) .........................

frequency of sample 1 (1 or List 1 to 26)

Freq(2) .........................

frequency of sample 2 (1 or List 1 to 26)

Pooled ..........................

pooling On (in effect) or Off (not in effect)

Save Res .....................

list for storage of calculation results (None or List 1 to 26)
