\title{
Sample Size for 2-sample Binomial
}
\description{
Computes sample size(s) for 2-sample binomial problem given vector or
scalar probabilities in the two groups.
}
\usage{
samplesize.bin(alpha, beta, pit, pic, rho=0.5)
}
\arguments{
\item{alpha}{
scalar ONE-SIDED test size, or two-sided size/2
}
\item{beta}{
scalar or vector of powers
}
\item{pit}{
hypothesized treatment probability of success
}
\item{pic}{
hypothesized control probability of success
}
\item{rho}{
proportion of the sample devoted to treated group (\eqn{0 <\code{rho} < 1})
}
}
\value{
TOTAL sample size(s)
}
