calculate_halflife: Calculate the halflife of data

Description

Determines the terminal halflife of a sequence of corresponding times and values with optional minimum and maximum times to censor data.

Usage

calculate_halflife(times = NULL, values = NULL, tmin = NULL, tmax = NULL)

Value

List with the following names

• thalf Halflife in units of times above

• mod Result of lm used to fit the log transformed data

• df Dataframe with the data and predicted values at the time within tmin and tmax

Arguments

times

- sequence of times

values

- corresponding sequence of values

tmin

- minimum time to include (NULL)

tmax

- maximum time to include (NULL)

Examples

x     = c(0:100)
y     = exp(-.1*x)
th    = calculate_halflife(times=x, values=y)
thalf = th$thalf
