ArtCohort: Class '"ArtCohort"'

In gems: Generalized Multistate Simulation Model

Description

Is a S4 class for the artificial cohort generated by simulateCohort.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'ArtCohort,ANY,ANY,ANY'
x[i, j, ..., drop = TRUE]

## S4 method for signature 'ArtCohort'
update(object, newsize, addbaseline = matrix(NA, nrow =
  newsize - object@size), newInitialStates = rep(1, newsize - object@size))

## S4 method for signature 'ArtCohort'
head(x, ...)

## S4 method for signature 'ArtCohort'
tail(x, ...)

## S4 method for signature 'ArtCohort'
summary(object)

Arguments

x, object	an ArtCohort
i, j, drop	same as for data.frame
...	passed on to data.frame method
newsize	size of the updated cohort
addbaseline	baseline for new part of cohort
newInitialStates	initial states for new part of cohort

Slots
