Calculate a binomial series lower confidence bound using Madansky's (1965) method.
Usage
madansky(s, n, alpha, use.backup = FALSE, backup.method, ...)
Arguments
s
Vector of successes.
n
Vector of sample sizes.
alpha
The significance level; to calculate a 100(1-\(\alpha\))% lower confidence bound.
use.backup
If TRUE, then a backup.method in the will be used for the methods with calculate LCB = 1 in the case of no failures across all components. If FALSE (default), no backup.method is used.
backup.method
The backup method which is used for the methods which calculate LCB = 1 in the case of zero failures. Use function name.
...
Additional arguments to be ignored.
Value
The 100(1-\(\alpha\))% lower confidence bound. Note that if there are zero observed
failures across all components, the output is LCB = 0.
