Description

Helps to find ties in death times of data.

Usage

fid(x, index)

Arguments

x	Sorted vector of death times.
index	Vector of indices for the death times.

Value

A list with two arguments.

index_first	A vector of indices for the first observation at each death time as they appear in the sorted list.
index_ties	If there are no ties at all, this is NULL. If not, this is a list with length equal to the number of unique times with ties. For each time with ties, index_ties gives the indices of the observations with a death at that time.
