Abstract
This paper extends Nair's exact Table of 95% and 99% confidence
intervals for the median to data sets containing up to 300 observations.
It provides for an approximate relationship especially useful
when the number of observations is large, and allows to calculate
quickly confidence intervals affected only seldom and occasionally
by tolerable error.
Résumé
Cet article présente une extension des Tables de Nair concernant
des intervalles de confiance pour la médiane avec 300 données
au maximum.
