residuals.lod_lm: Extract lod_lm residuals

In lodr: Linear Model Fitting with LOD Covariates

Description

Extracts residuals from object of class "lod_lm".

Usage

## S3 method for class 'lod_lm'
residuals(object, ...)

Arguments

object	An object of class "lod_lm", usually, a result of a call to lod_lm
...	further arguments passed to or from other methods.

Details

For subjects with covariates outside of limits of detection, when computing residuals the values for these covariates are set according to method specified by argument fill_in_method in call to lod_lm.

Value

Residuals extracted from object as a named numeric vector.

Examples

library(lodr)
## Using example dataset provided in lodr package: lod_data_ex
## 3 covariates: x1, x2, x3 with x2 and x3 subject to a lower limit of
## detection of 0

## nSamples set to 100 for computational speed/illustration purposes only.  
## At least 250 is recommended.  Same for boots=0; results in NAs returned for standard errors

fit <- lod_lm(data=lod_data_ex, frmla=y~x1+x2+x3, lod=c(0,0),
                  var_LOD=c("x2", "x3"), nSamples=100, boots=0)
 residuals(fit)
