[ROOT] Low Statistics Feldman Cousins

Hi,

hi=FeldCous->Upper(68.27,2)             (hi=4.25)
lo=FeldCous->Lower(68.27,2)             (lo=0.74)

Does anyone have a function which can return confidence intervals
IE replicate at 68.27% confidence

0 (0.00-1.29) instead of (0.00-0.00) from sqrt(n)
1 (0.37-2.75)            (0.00-2.00)
2 (0.74-4.25)            (0.59-3.41)
4 (2.34-6.78)            (2.00-6.00)
9 (6.33-12.79)           (6.0-12.00)
etc.

Thanks,
Kevin

PS an electronically accessible reference would also help. I have these
numbers from a document and cannot get to reference.
