Arguments

eList

named list with at least the Daily, Sample, and INFO dataframes. Created from the EGRET package, after running modelEstimation.

…

additional arguments to bring in to reduce interactive options (year1, year2, nBoot, bootBreak, blockLength)

Value

caseSetUp data frame with columns year1, yearData1, year2, yearData2, numSamples, nBoot, bootBreak, blockLength, confStop. These correspond to:

Column Name	Manuscript Variable
year1	\(y_s\)
year2	\(y_e\)
nBoot	\(M_max\)
bootBreak	\(M_min\)
blockLength	\(B\)

Examples

# NOT RUN {
eList <- EGRET::Choptank_eList

# Completely interactive:
# caseSetUp <- trendSetUp(eList)
# Semi-interactive:
# caseSetUp <- trendSetUp(eList, nBoot = 100, blockLength = 200)

# fully scripted:
caseSetUp <- trendSetUp(eList,
  year1=1985, 
  year2=2005,
  nBoot = 50, 
  bootBreak = 39,
  blockLength = 200)
