Dear all,

I found the difference of mean calculation method between equivtest 1.0 and 2.0. Equivtest 1.0 calculates (mean_seq1+mean_seq2)/2 instead of {(mean_seq1*n1)+(mean_seq2*n2)}/(n1+n2). The company confirmed Equivtest 2.0 is right. Which is the right one in your opinion? Is the other method absolutely wrong? I would also like to know the theoretical basis.

I look forward to your reply.
Best regards,
