CI for the Population Median — ci_median • confintr

This function calculates CIs for the population median by calling ci_quantile().

ci_median(
  x,
  probs = c(0.025, 0.975),
  type = c("binomial", "bootstrap"),
  boot_type = c("bca", "perc", "norm", "basic"),
  R = 9999L,
  seed = NULL,
  ...
)

Arguments

x: A numeric vector.
probs: Lower and upper probabilities, by default c(0.025, 0.975).
type: Type of CI. One of "binomial" (default), or "bootstrap".
boot_type: Type of bootstrap CI. Only used for type = "bootstrap".
R: The number of bootstrap resamples. Only used for type = "bootstrap".
seed: An integer random seed. Only used for type = "bootstrap".
...: Further arguments passed to boot::boot().

Value

An object of class "cint", see ci_mean() for details.
