#   having cohort of size 1 for doses <30
#   and having cohort of size 3 for doses >=30
mySize1 <- CohortSizeRange(intervals = c(0, 30), cohort_size = c(1, 3))

# Here is the rule for:
#   having cohort of size 1 until no DLT were observed
#   and having cohort of size 3 as soon as 1 DLT is observed

# the single rules
