✦ Synopsis

Computation of the exact confidence interval for a binomial proportion is tedious and requires iterative computer techniques. A Quickbasic program for the IBM PC computer is described that accomplishes the confidence interval calculation accurately, quickly, and with no limits placed on the confidence level, or the size of the numerator or denominator. If desired, the mid-P confidence interval can be computed. The compiled program takes one second on the IBM PC 386/33 without a math co-processor.

## Abstract Simultaneous confidence intervals for contrasts of means in a one‐way layout with several independent samples are well established for Gaussian distributed data. Procedures addressing different hypotheses are available, such as all pairwise comparisons or comparisons to control, compari
