Description

Function to compute confidence levels for a mean.

Syntax

int ocmath_confidence_levels_for_mean( const double * pLevels, UINT nLevels, const tTestMean1SampleResults * tTestRes, double * pLCLs, double * pUCLs )

Parameters

pLevels: [Input] pointer to confidence levels, e.g. {0.9, 0.95, 0.99}
nLevels: [Input] number of levels in pLevels.
tTestRes: [Input] structure containing t-Test results from ocmath_one_sample_t_test
pLCLs: [Output] pointers to Lower Confidence Limits for mean
pUCLs: [Output] pointers to Upper Confidence Limits for mean

Return

Returns STATS_NO_ERROR on successful exit and a non-zero STATS error code on failure.

Examples
