    This document compares confidence intervals for sample means calculated by OpenEpi to other software programs like EpiInfo6. It presents results for confidence intervals at different sample sizes, percentiles, and confidence levels to allow comparison between the methods. OpenEpi and EpiInfo6 produce similar 95% confidence intervals for sample means, while only OpenEpi can calculate broader confidence intervals like 99.99%.
