Abstract: | Summary The length of the confidence interval which is constructed by one stage sampling is a random variable, whereas we can construct
a confidence interval of given length and of given confidence coefficient by a sequential sampling. Of cource, the sample
size required by this method is a random variable. This type of problem has already been discussed in several papers when
the population is normal (see references 2], 3], 4]). In this paper we shall discuss this subject in the binomial and Poisson
cases. |
