n: Query sample size of a design

Description Usage Arguments See Also Examples

Description

Methods to access the stage-one, stage-two, or overall sample size of a TwoStageDesign. n1 returns the first-stage sample size of a design, n2 the stage-two sample size conditional on the stage-one test statistic and n the overall sample size n1 + n2. Internally, objects of the class TwoStageDesign allow non-natural, real sample sizes to allow smooth optimization (cf. minimize for details). The optional argument round allows to switch between the internal real representation and a rounded version (rounding to the next positive integer).
