rpexp: Draw random numbers from piece-wise exponential distribution.

In adibender/pammtools: Piece-Wise Exponential Additive Mixed Modeling Tools for Survival Analysis

Draw random numbers from piece-wise exponential distribution.

Description

This is a copy of the same function from rpexp from package msm. Copied here to reduce dependencies.

Usage

rpexp(n = 1, rate = 1, t = 0)

Arguments

n	number of observations. If length(n) > 1, the length is taken to be the number required.
rate	vector of rates.
t	vector of the same length as rate, giving the times at which the rate changes. The first element of t should be 0, and t should be in increasing order.
