In SimRVPedigree: Simulate Pedigrees Ascertained for a Rare Disease

Description

Determine the cumulative probability of the waiting time associated with a non-homogenous Poisson process, given the time of the last event.

Usage

get_wait_prob(last_event, wait_time, hazard, part, scale = FALSE)

Arguments

last_event	A positive number. The time at last event.
wait_time	A positive number. The waiting time to the next event.
hazard	A vector of positive numbers. The time-specific hazard rate.
part	A vector of positive numbers. Time partition over which to apply the time-specific hazard rate.
scale	Logical. By default scale = FALSE. Specifying scale = TRUE ensures that this function is the CDF of a proper random variable.

Value

wait_prob The probability that the waiting time to next event is at least wait_time.
