h_find_ci_bound_uniroot: Root-finding CI bounds from one-sided p-value functions

Description

This function is an internal helper for prop_diff_uncond_exact().

Usage

h_find_ci_bound_uniroot(
  p_value_function,
  cutoff,
  direction = c("increasing", "decreasing"),
  interval = c(-1, 1),
  tol = 1e-06,
  maxiter = 1000
)

Value

A number with the requested CI bound, or NA_real_ if no bound exists.

Arguments

p_value_function

(function) one-sided p-value function in terms of d.

cutoff

(number) one-sided significance level threshold.

direction

(string) one of "increasing" or "decreasing".

interval

(numeric) 2-element search interval.

tol

(number) tolerance for stats::uniroot().

maxiter

(integer) maximum number of stats::uniroot() iterations.
