. Limits must satisfy
the following:
where: [Lbnd,Ubnd]=lower and upper limits
The Ü-statistic is used as the bound producing the smallest integral. The
remaining bound is selected to achieve the preceding integral’s equality
relationship.
2-SampTTest
The following is the definition for the 2-SampTTest. The two-sample t
statistic with degrees of freedom df is:
Ü =
Û-statistic =
df(x, , )=Ûpdf( ) with degrees of freedom df, ,
and
p =reported p value
