Thorsten Schäfer commented on MATH-1038:
----------------------------------------
1. I was thinking that one might want something like "how many numbers of
success can I expect in at least 95% cases based on a binomial sample", which
would be an interval of integers instead of doubles. However, currently its
just a "stupid" type structure doing nothing else but wrapping two values. Feel
free to get rid of the generic numbers.
3. Yes, its a number between 0 and 1; 0.95 is the 95% confidence interval - or
5% significance level
> Add methods to find confidence intervals for the mean of a binomial
> distribution
