QH: QH: Quesenberry and Hurst Method for Simultaneous Confidence Intervals
Description
Computes simultaneous confidence intervals for multinomial proportions
using the Quesenberry and Hurst (1964) method. The function calculates
lower and upper confidence limits for each category, adjusts them to remain
within the valid [0, 1] range, and computes the overall interval volume
(the product of the interval widths).
Usage
QH(inpmat, alpha)
Value
Prints the original and adjusted confidence intervals for each
category, as well as the overall volume of the simultaneous confidence
intervals.
Arguments
inpmat
Integer vector of observed cell counts corresponding to
a categorical dataset. Must contain non-negative values.
alpha
Desired statistical significance level

Details
This function implements the simultaneous confidence interval method
proposed by Quesenberry and Hurst (1964) for multinomial proportions.
It adjusts each interval to ensure limits remain within the [0, 1] range.
