Typo - Chp 16, Sec 1.3, simulation seems wrong

[hardin47]

• Chapter number: 16

• Section number: 1.3

• Other location identifier, if any (e.g., figure number, table number, footnote number, etc.): Near Figure 16.1

Simulated frequency of 420 has to be for complications <= 2 instead <= 3.
Expected frequency for <= 3 using the binomial distribution is 1210, and for <= 2 450.
So the p-value for <= 0.048 has to be around 0.121.
The bar in Figure 16.1 over 5 has to be blue, too.
Subsequent conclusions are also wrong.

@hardin47 I assigned this back to you because I'm not sure I follow the comment. I'm probably missing something but thought you might have more context.

We need to change the simulation to be p_sim <= 0.0484 (round up instead of round down) to catch the actual observed value. I think it will make the p-value 0.121-ish, so not statistically discernible (narrative will also need to change).

I fixed the question, but I think maybe we are replacing the entire example of the medical consultant. See issue #409 .
