\title{conf: Visualization and Analysis of Statistical Measures of Confidence}
\description{
Enables:
\enumerate{
\item confidence region plots in two-dimensions corresponding to a user given dataset,
level of significance, and parametric probability distribution (supported distribution suffixes:
cauchy, gamma, invgauss, lnorm, llogis, logis, norm, unif, weibull),
\item coverage simulations (if a point of interest is within or outside of a confidence region
boundary) for either random samples drawn from a user-specified parametric distribution or for a
user-specified dataset and point of interest, and
\item calculating confidence intervals and the associated actual coverage for binomial proportions.
