Create a set of testing parameters for simulating a quantitative trait

Description

Create a set of parameters (see create_simulate_qt_params) for simulating a quantitative trait (see simulate_qt) to be used for testing.

Usage

create_test_simulate_qt_params(
  n_snps = 10,
  snp_label = "test_trait",
  allele_frequency_lower = 0.05,
  allele_frequency_upper = 0.95,
  additive_genetic_variance = 0.01,
  ratio_dominance_to_additive = 0
)

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.
