2-PropZTest
2-PropZTest (two-proportion z test; item 6) computes a test to compare the proportion of successes
(p
1
and p
2
) from two populations. It takes as input the count of successes in each sample (x
1
and
x
2
) and the count of observations in each sample (n
1
and n
2
). 2-PropZTest tests the null hypothesis
