getParkesZones: Assign Parkes (Consensus) error grid zones to paired glucose...

In njfreesurfer/ega: Error Grid Analysis

Description

referenceVals and testVals are assumed to contain paired glucose values from a reference method and a test method, respectively. The discrepancy between the two values, as well as the type of error grid desired (Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes), is used to place the pair into a Parkes (Consensus) error grid zone, according to the criteria described in the second reference below.

Usage

getParkesZones(referenceVals, testVals, type = 1)

Arguments

referenceVals	A vector of glucose values obtained via the reference method.
testVals	A vector of glucose values obtained via a non-reference method (e.g. a new meter). The values in this vector are paired with those in referenceVals, so the length should be the same.
type	An integer (1 or 2) specifying whether to obtain zones for Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes. Defaults to 1.

Value

A character vector is returned, with each element being one of "A", "B", "C", "D", or "E".
