Examples

data = data.frame(id=c(1,1,1,2,2),start=c(0,1,2,3,4),slut=c(1,2,4,4,7),
                  type=c(1,2,3,2,3),status=c(0,1,2,1,2),group=c(1,1,1,2,2))
ll = lifecourse(Event(start,slut,status)~id,data,id="id")
ll = lifecourse(Event(start,slut,status)~id,data,id="id",recurrent.col="type")

ll = lifecourse(Event(start,slut,status)~id,data,id="id",group=~group,col=1:2)
op <- par(mfrow=c(1,2))
ll = lifecourse(Event(start,slut,status)~id,data,id="id",by=~group)
par(op)
legends=c("censored","pregnant","married")
ll = lifecourse(Event(start,slut,status)~id,data,id="id",group=~group,col=1:2,status.legend=legends)
