Hello all
We're coming across difficulties in choosing the correct way of producing
confidence intervals, especially for studies where the results are small.
What we've got are two opinions - I think - one holding out for the use of
the Newcome-Wilson score and one urging the use of exact intervals based on
a binomial distribution.
I'd love to know which is the best (or any others) given that we need to
calculate them using Excel.
Any opinions?
Bob
