example. The symmetric nature of the Wald confidence interval may lead to upper limits over 100% or lower limits under 0, which is seen here for n=24. The conservative hierarchy of the confidence intervals (in this range of p) can be seen in this example. From Table 1 we see that in order to insure a lower confidence limit over
