Gt

Description

G(t)=P(C>t) denote the Kaplan-Meier estimate of the censoring distribution which is used to adjust for censoring. Gt is used to calculate G(t) at any timepoint you want.

Usage

Gt(object, timepoint)

Arguments

object	object of class Surv created by Surv function.
timepoint	any point in time you want to get the Kaplan–Meier estimate of the censoring.

Value

The Kaplan–Meier estimate of the censoring in (0,1).
