In longevity: Statistical Methods for the Analysis of Excess Lifetimes

Sample observations from an interval truncated excess lifetime distribution

Description

Sample observations from an interval truncated excess lifetime distribution

Usage

r_dtrunc_elife(
  n,
  scale,
  rate,
  shape,
  lower,
  upper,
  family = c("exp", "gp", "gomp", "gompmake", "weibull", "extgp", "gppiece",
    "extweibull", "perks", "beard", "perksmake", "beardmake")
)

Arguments

n	sample size
scale	scale parameter(s)
rate	rate parameter(s)
shape	shape parameter(s)
lower	vector of lower bounds
upper	vector of upper bounds
family	string; choice of parametric family

Value

a vector of n observations

Examples

n <- 100L
# the lower and upper bound are either scalar,
# or else vectors of length n
r_dtrunc_elife(n = n, scale = 1, shape = -0.1,
               lower = pmax(0, runif(n, -0.5, 1)),
               upper = runif(n, 6, 10),
               family = "gp")
