SurvRegCensCov (version 1.7)

censorContVar: Censor a vector of continuous numbers

Description

Given a vector of realizations of a continuous random variable, interval-, left-, or right-censor these numbers at given boundaries. Useful when setting up simulations involving censored observations.

Usage

censorContVar(x, LLOD = NA, ULOD = NA)

Value

A data.frame as specified by code = interval2 in Surv.

Arguments

x

Vector of random numbers.

LLOD

Lower limit where x should be left-censored at. If no left-censoring, set to NA.

ULOD

Upper limit where x should be left-censored at. If no left-censoring, set to NA.

x <- rnorm(200)

## interval-censor this vector at -1 and 0.5
