12  Interval Estimation

Intervals only make sense together with the procedure that constructs them and with the notion of coverage. This chapter should therefore explain what guarantee stands behind a given interval rather than collect formulas mechanically.

Later this section will host Neyman constructions, profile-likelihood intervals, and boundary regimes where naive symmetric formulas stop behaving well.

12.0.1 Companion notebook

The companion notebook contains the simplest interval example for a proportion and leaves a natural place for future coverage studies.
