[R] Question on Binom.Confint

[Jim Lemon]

Hi Fang,
Let's assume that you are using the "binom.confint" function in the
"binom" package and you have made a spelling mistake or two. This
function employs nine methods for estimating the binomial confidence
interval. Sadly, none of these is "lrt". The zero condition is
discussed in the help page for four of these methods. Assuming you
want to use another method, you will have to look up the method. A
good start is:
