Examples

requireNamespace("survival")
br = build_surv_for_mut("BRCA")
has_TTN = apply(br$mutdata, 2, function(x) any(x == "TTN", na.rm=TRUE))
fi = survival::survfit(br$surv ~ has_TTN)
plot(fi, lwd=2, col=c("blue", "orange"), xlab = "t = Years from diagnosis", ylab="S(t) = Prob(survive beyond t)")  # KM-plot
legend(.1, .3, lwd=2, col=c("blue", "orange"), lty=1, legend=c("TTN wild-type", "TTN-mutant"), bty="n")
