Surv in survival vs. in popEpi

popEpi::Surv is a wrapper for survival::Surv. Therefore you don't need to to do library("survival") when using Surv with e.g. ⁠[survtab]⁠. Remember that if you do library("survival") after library("popEpi"), the Surv from survival is used instead of from popEpi (R throws a warning about this) when an expression such as Surv(my_times, my_events) is evaluated. You can avoid such conflicts by writing e.g. popEpi::Surv(my_times, my_events) instead. However, popEpi::Surv is designed in such a way that this should not become a problem and you should be able to use the two interchangeably.
