plot.ldPower: Plot for Group Sequential Boundaries

In ldbounds: Lan-DeMets Method for Group Sequential Boundaries

Plot for Group Sequential Boundaries

Description

Plot of the sequential boundaries for objects of class '"ldBounds"' or '"ldPower"'.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'ldPower'
plot(x, scale = "z", main = NULL, xlab = NULL, ylab =
      NULL, xlim, ylim, las=1, pch=19, type="o", add=F, ...)

Arguments

x	an object of class '"ldBounds"' or '"ldPower"'.
scale	whether the y-axis should use the Z-value (default, "z") or the B-value ("b") scale.
main	an overall title for the plot: see title.
xlab	a title for the x axis: see title.
ylab	a title for the y axis: see title.
xlim, ylim, las, pch, type, ...	graphical parameters passed to plot.
add	logical, whether to add to an existing plot or draw a new plot.
