effcalc calculates the amplification efficiency of a dilution.
# S4 method for numeric,numeric

effcalc(x, y, logx = TRUE, RSD = FALSE, rob = FALSE,
level = 0.95)is the column of a data frame for the concentration (dilution).
are multiple columns of Cq values from a
data.frame (e.g., [, c(1:n)]).
is a logical parameter used to convert the concentration into a decadic logarithm.
Setting the option RSD = TRUE shows the relative
standard deviation (RSD) in percent.
Using the option rob as TRUE the median and the median
absolute deviation (MAD) is plotted instead of the mean and standard
deviation.
Tolerance/confidence level.
