exact_pvalue {RPEXE.RPEXT}

P-value for the two exponential comparison in Han et al.(2012)

Description

This function computes the exact p-value from the likelihood ratio test

Usage

Arguments

ttot1

total time on test 1

ttot2

total time on test 2

dea1

number of death 1

dea2

number of death 2

mono

0: 2-sided hypothesis: H0: lam1 is equal to lam2; H1: lam1 is not equal to lam2 1: 1-sided hypothesis: H0: lam1 is greater than or equal to lam2; H1: lam1 is less than lam2 2: 1-sided hypothesis: H0: lam1 is less than or equal to lam2; H1: lam1 is greater than lam2

Value

a2: Beta distribution quantile computed using bisec.R pval: p-value
