Likelihood interval for mean of single sample assuming normal distribution. Likelihood function plot is also shown. Likelihood function plot is also shown. For faster calculation speed, plot option '0' is recommended.

Currently used CI method has its limitation when the test statistics are asymmetrical (chi-square test, F-test) or the model functions are non-linear. It can be overcome by using the likelihood functions for the interval estimation. 'inteli' package now supports interval estimation for the mean, variance, variance ratio, binomial distribution, Poisson distribution, odds ratio, risk difference, relative risk and their likelihood function plots. Testing functions are also provided.
