[R] Bootstrapping One- and Two-Sample Hypothesis Tests of Proportion

[Marc Schwartz]

Hi,

I don't see Duncan's reply in the archive, but consider:

> 1 / 4
[1] 0.25

> mean(c(1, 0, 0, 0))
[1] 0.25


> 3 / 9
[1] 0.3333333

> mean(c(1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0))
[1] 0.3333333


Regards,

Marc Schwartz
