myhre_rennie2 function

Myhre and Rennie (reliability invariant) method

Calculate a binomial series lower confidence bound using the Myhre-Rennie (reliability invariant) method (1986).

myhre_rennie2(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.

Returns

The 100(1-$\alpha$)% lower confidence bound.

Examples

myhre_rennie2(s=c(35, 97, 59), n=c(35, 100, 60), alpha=.10)
