prop_test

Internal function for testing proportion

This function is wrapped by prop.test(), which most users should use instead.

prop_test(
  x,
  n,
  p = NULL,
  alternative = c("two.sided", "less", "greater"),
  conf.level = 0.95,
  ...
)

`x`	a vector, count, or formula.
`n`	a vector of counts of trials (not needed when `x` is a table or matrix).
`p`	a vector of probabilities of success (for the null hypothesis). The length must be the same as the number of groups specified by `x`.
`alternative`	a character string specifying the alternative hypothesis, must be one of `"two.sided"` (default), `"greater"` or `"less"`. You can specify just the initial letter. Only used for testing the null that a single proportion equals a given value, or that two proportions are equal; ignored otherwise.
`conf.level`	confidence level of the returned confidence interval. Must be a single number between 0 and 1. Only used when testing the null that a single proportion equals a given value, or that two proportions are equal; ignored otherwise.
`...`	additional arguments passed to methods.
