dc.description.abstractThe problem of setting a confidence interval with fixed proportional accuracy for the mean of a normal distribution is considered. A sequential procedure is proposed; and asymptotic expansions for its average coverage probabilities and its expected sample size are obtained. The procedure is shown to have asymptotically minimal expected sample size, subject to a constraint on the error probabilities.en_US
