\title{Lower binomial confidence limit}
\description{
Calculates a lower binomial confidence limit using the Wilson approximation.
}
\usage{
binciWl(x,n,alpha=0.05,trueval=NA,na.rm=TRUE)
}
\arguments{
\item{x}{The number of successes or failures for which the CI is to be calculated.}
\item{n}{The number of trials as above.}
\item{alpha}{The desired coverage - 0.05 produces 95 percent coverage}
\item{trueval}{The value representing the outcome of interest for the CI.}
\item{na.rm}{Argument needed to make this work}
}
\details{
\samp{binciWl} calculates the lower binomial confidence limit for the
given number of successes and trials. It is mainly to allow binomial confidence
limits to be calculated in the \samp{brkdnNest} function, which is why
the upper and lower CIs are calculated separately.
