Title Generate Sample with Cure Fraction

Description

Generator Sample with Cure Fraction, given a generator of samples of the distribution X (rdistrX) with parameters appended by the list param_X. Also the proportion of cure desired p.

Usage

rcuref(rdistrX, param_X, n = 10000, p = 0.5)

Arguments

rdistrX

sample generator of distribution X.
First argument number of samples, next arguments in param_X.

param_X

list with parameters of rdistrX function.

n

number of sample to create.

p

cure fraction

Value

A list with sample data information:

data_cf vector of cure fraction sample.
cure_list vector of 1 and 0 indicating whether the i-th sample is cured.
1:= cure , 0:= no cure
cure_fraction cure fraction used to create de sample.

Examples

#Example Exponential Cure Fraction p = 0.5

Data = rcuref(rdistrX = rexp, param_X = list("rate" = 1),
              n = 1000, p = 0.5)
