#' Wald Confidence Interval (with continuity correction)
#'
#' The simple Wald type interval with continuity corrections for multinomial proportions which is symmetrical about the sample proportions.
#'
#' @md
#' @param inpmat the cell counts of given contingency tables corresponding to categorical data
#' @param alpha a number in `[0..1]` to get the upper 100(1-`alpha`) percentage point of the chi square distribution
#' @return `tibble` with original and adjusted limits of multinomial proportions together with product of length of k intervals as volume of simultaneous confidence intervals
