The O’Brien-Fleming Boundary: Interim Checks of Experiment Design, Part 2

<p>Experiment design and analysis is an interesting career avenue for the aspiring statistician/programmer. If you can construct a sound hypothesis test, then&nbsp;<em>you</em>&nbsp;can simultaneously help people and earn cash. Experiments can be complex and costly.
