Hi David, Thank you for your comments, and feed-back message. I am very happy to learn from the experience of the people on R mailing list, and without any doubt, I am very thankful to you and to everyone for sharing their knowledge. I do apologize for any confusion that I have created unwillingly with my previous email.
About my previous email related to the confidence intervals: indeed I have posted the question with a detailed description on stackoverflow, and the link is listed below. I have to admit that I have been in rush willing to have the suggestions of R-help members by Monday (if that would have been possible), as I have to make a decision at the beginning of this week on whether I need to re-code the shell script in R. I have a deadline on Wed. The script itself is less important per se, I have included it just to point our the origin of my question. I do certainly respect the principles of online R-help community, and I would very much appreciate if I could have your advice on the following : shall a "R code related emergency" arise, would it be acceptable to post the question on stackoverflow with the corresponding data tables and detailed code, and to refer the posting on R-help mailing list ? If it is acceptable at least for a single email, and if you do not mind, I could mention the link to stackoverflow, inviting our members to read it, shall they be comfortable with this topic. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73507697/confidence-intervals-of-a-biological-assay?noredirect=1#comment129816241_73507697 Thanks a lot, have a good week ! ~ Bogdan https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73507697/confidence-intervals-of-a-biological-assay?noredirect=1#comment129816241_73507697 On Sat, Aug 27, 2022, 6:52 PM David Winsemius <dwinsem...@comcast.net> wrote: > You cross-posted this to StackOverflow and did not say so. ... and you > posted in HTML Bad dog squared.
