Returns the known study designs for which power and sample size can be calculated within this package.
known.designs()Returns a data.frame with
no= number of the design
design= character string for identifying the design
df= degrees of freedom of the design
df2= 'robust' degrees of freedom of the design
steps= step width in the iterative sample size estimation
bk= so-called design constant in terms of total n
bkni= design constant in terms of number of subjects in (sequence) groups
The design character string has to be used in the functions calls for power and sample size.
This function is for informal purposes and will be used internal for obtaining characteristics of the designs used in calculation formulas.
