Discrepancies in reference material for median MOE

sastoudt opened this issue · comments

For the calculation of SE(50 percent) there are different numerators used depending on the particular reference.

page 2 step A uses 99.

page 22 in Example 3 uses 95.

There are also different denominators used (B and 5B respectively).

We currently use 99 and B.
