<p>A list containing the predicted x value, its standard error and a
confidence interval.</p>
<h2 class="hasAnchor" id="note"><a class="anchor" href="#note"></a>Note</h2>
<p>The function was validated with examples 7 and 8 from Massart et al. (1997).
Note that the behaviour of inverse.predict changed with chemCal version
0.2.1. Confidence intervals for x values obtained from calibrations with
replicate measurements did not take the variation about the means into account.
Please refer to the vignette for details.</p>
