Make a confidence interval from a point estimate and standard error.

Usage

make_ci(
  point,
  se,
  level = 0.95,
  transform = NULL,
  numeric = FALSE,
  format_numeric = "%0.3g",
  format_character = "%s"
)

Arguments

point: The point estimate (numeric vector)
se: The standard error of the estimate (numeric vector)
level: The confidence level
transform: A function that takes a matrix input and returns a matrix output of the confidence interval values transformed.
numeric: Should the transformed point estimate be returned instead of the character representation?
format_numeric, format_character: Formats for use in sprintf for the output of the transform function.

Value

If numeric=FALSE a character vector of the confidence intervals represented as "X [X, X]" where X are numbers with three significant figures (or if the transform returns a character matrix, those text). If numeric=TRUE, a numeric vector of the point estimates.
