## Original question and givens

Use complete theta values=[0, 1], samples=[a, b], theta/sample-aligned probability rows=[[23/25, 2/25], [2/25, 23/25]], and sample-aligned closed intervals=[[0, 0], [1, 1]]. The interval procedure is total, precommitted and independent of the unknown theta. Give (theta_values, samples, aligned_closed_intervals, aligned_probability_rows, procedure_qualified, qualification_statement).

The interval procedure is total, precommitted and independent of the unknown theta.

## Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.
