check_sum_of_transition_array: Check if the sum of transition probabilities equal to one.

In DARTH-git/darthtools: darthtools is an R package that contains tools developed by the Decision Analysis in R for Technologies in Health (DARTH) workgroup to construct model-based cost-effectiveness analysis in R.

Check if the sum of transition probabilities equal to one.

Description

check_sum_of_transition_array checks if each of the rows of the transition matrices sum to one.

Usage

check_sum_of_transition_array(
  a_P,
  n_rows = NULL,
  n_states = NULL,
  n_cycles,
  err_stop = TRUE,
  verbose = TRUE
)

Arguments

a_P	A transition probability array/ matrix.
n_rows	Number of rows (individuals), appropriate for microsimulation models.
n_states	Number of health states in a Markov trace, appropriate for Markov models.
n_cycles	Number of cycles.
err_stop	Logical variable to stop model run if set up as TRUE. Default = TRUE.
verbose	Logical variable to indicate print out of messages. Default = TRUE

Value

The transition probability array and the cohort trace matrix.
