define_state_transition: Define a Markov Model State Transition

Define a Markov Model State Transition

Description

Define the values characterising a Markov Model trasition into, out of, or between states.

Usage

define_state_transition(from = NA, to = NA, ...)

define_state_transition_(to, from, .dots)

## S3 method for class 'state_transition'
modify(.OBJECT, ...)

## S3 method for class 'state_transition'
modify(.OBJECT, ...)

Arguments

from	Character vector of names of from-states for which value is applied. When not given, value is applied to any from state.
to	Character vector of names of to-states for which value is applied. When not given, value is applied to any to state.
...	Name-value pairs of expressions defining state values.
.dots	Used to work around non-standard evaluation.
.OBJECT	An object of class state_transition.

Details

As with define_parameters(), state transition values are defined sequentially. Later state definition can thus only refer to values defined earlier.

For the modify function, existing values are modified, no new values can be added. Values order matters since only values defined earlier can be referenced in later expressions.

Value

An object of class state_transition (actually a named list of lazy expressions).
