 Description: Computes confidence intervals for the rate (or risk)
-    difference ('RD') or rate ratio (or relative risk, 'RR') for 
-    binomial proportions or Poisson rates, or for odds ratio 
-    ('OR', binomial only). Also confidence intervals for a single 
-    binomial or Poisson rate, and intervals for matched pairs. 
-    Includes skewness-corrected asymptotic score ('SCAS') methods, 
-    which have been developed in Laud (2017) <doi:10.1002/pst.1813>
-    from Miettinen & Nurminen (1985) <doi:10.1002/sim.4780040211> and 
-    Gart & Nam (1988) <doi:10.2307/2531848>. The same score produces 
-    hypothesis tests analogous to the test for binomial RD and RR by 
-    Farrington & Manning (1990) <doi:10.1002/sim.4780091208>, or the
-    McNemar test for paired data. 
-    The package also includes MOVER methods
-    (Method Of Variance Estimates Recovery) for all contrasts, derived 
-    from the Newcombe method but with options to use equal-tailed 
-    intervals in place of the Wilson score method,
-    and generalised for Bayesian applications incorporating prior 
-    information. So-called 'exact' methods for strictly conservative 
-    coverage are approximated using continuity corrections, and the amount
-    of correction can be selected to avoid over-conservative coverage.
-    Also includes methods for stratified calculations (e.g. meta-analysis),
-    either assuming fixed effects (matching the CMH test) or incorporating 
-    stratum heterogeneity.
