The transformation is strictly decreasing for . Therefore an interval with transforms to
The event is exactly the event , so the approximate coverage is inherited. If the lower endpoint for reaches zero, the transformed upper endpoint for is ; if the upper endpoint reaches one, the lower endpoint is . Finally intersect with integer values , rounding the lower bound upward and the upper bound downward. This respects the original discrete population constraint.
