[R] prop.test correct true and false gives same answer

[David Arnold]

All,

How come both of these are the same.  Both say "1-sample proportions test
without continuity correction." I would suspect one would say "without" and
one would say "with."


> prop.test(118,236,.5,correct=FALSE,conf.level=0.95)

	1-sample proportions test without continuity correction

data:  118 out of 236, null probability 0.5 
X-squared = 0, df = 1, p-value = 1
alternative hypothesis: true p is not equal to 0.5 
95 percent confidence interval:
 0.4367215 0.5632785 
sample estimates:
  p 
0.5 

> prop.test(118,236,.5,correct=TRUE,conf.level=0.95)

X-squared = 0, df = 1, p-value = 1
