compute_OR

Description

compute_OR() calculates odds ratios from data of two vectors representing the frequencies of: numerator; denominator. The correction may be used if there is any frequency equals zero to avoid getting meaningless outputs.

Usage

compute_OR(numerator, denominator, correction = TRUE)

Arguments

numerator	the column whose data are the frequencies of the numerator
denominator	the column whose data are the frequencies of the denominator
correction	logical, if TRUE (the default) the odds ratio will be calculated by adding 0.5 to avoid meaningless results

Value

A vector of odds ratios

Examples

compute_OR(rbinom(10, 1000, 0.8), rbinom(10, 1000, 0.1), FALSE)
