SetSubjectSwitchTimes.Switches: Set the patient times at which the hazard functions changes

In scientific-computing-solutions/badminton: Simulation of Continuous-Time Discrete-Space Markov Chains

Description

For a given study-time period there is a set of subject times at which the hazard functions changes. This function allows these time to be entered into a Switches object. If there is already a set of patient times for calendarTime then they will be overwritten

Usage

SetSubjectSwitchTimes.Switches(object, calendarTime,
  times = vector("numeric"))

Arguments

object	The switches object to which the new times are added
calendarTime	The calendar time at which these new patient times are used. calendarTime should be in object$calendarTimes (which includes calendar time 0 – the start of the trial).
times	a vector of positive patient times at which the hazard function changes, the default option times = vector("numeric") is used when the same hazard functions are used for all patient-time for this calendar time

Value

switches object with the new patient times added.

Examples

 switches <- InitializeStudySwitches(c(5,10,20))
 print(switches)
 switches <- SetSubjectSwitchTimes.Switches(switches,0,c(5,50))
 print(switches)
 switches <- SetSubjectSwitchTimes.Switches(switches,10,c(5,50))
 print(switches)
