AGSDest (version 2.3.4)

cp: coditional power of a GSD

Description

cp is a function that computes the conditional power of a GSD.

Usage

cp(GSD)

Arguments

GSD

object of the class GSTobj or list with the following elements: K = number of stages, a = vector with futility boundaries (not supported yet), b = rejection boundaries, t = vector with information fractions, Imax = maximum information number, delta = effect size used for planning the trial; see example blow.

Value

cp returns the conditional power of a GSD.
