Create a set of parameters for simulating a quantitative trait

Description

Create a set of parameters for simulating for simulating a quantitative trait (see simulate_qt). Use create_test_simulate_qt_params) for a set of parameters using in testing.

Usage

create_simulate_qt_params(
  n_snps,
  snp_label,
  allele_frequency_lower,
  allele_frequency_upper,
  additive_genetic_variance,
  ratio_dominance_to_additive
)

Arguments

n_snps	the number of SNPs, as can be checked by check_n_snps
snp_label	Label of this set of SNPs
allele_frequency_lower	Lower allele frequency range
allele_frequency_upper	Upper allele frequency range
additive_genetic_variance	The additive genetic variance
ratio_dominance_to_additive	The ratio of dominance to additive effects

Note

This function is named after the --simulate-qt PLINK flag.
