as.data.frame.pairwiseMEP {pairwiseCI}R Documentation

Coerce output of pairwiseMEP to a data.frame

Description

Coerces the output of the function pairwiseMEP to a data.frame.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'pairwiseMEP':
as.data.frame(x, row.names = NULL, optional = FALSE, whichep = NULL, ...)

Arguments

x an object of class 'pairwiseMEP' as can be obtained by calling pairwiseMEP
row.names as in as.data.frame
optional as in as.data.frame
whichep a vector of integers or character strings, indexing which endpoints (which response variables) from the x shall be coerced to a data.frame; if omitted (default), all endpoints are coerced to a data.frame
... Further arguments to be passed to as.data.frame

Value

A data.frame with columns

estimate numeric, the point estimates
lower numeric, the lower confidence limits
upper numeric, the upper confidence limits
comparison character, the name of the groupwise comparison
by optional, character, the name of subset of the original data.frame
response character, the name of the response variable
method character, the name of the method used for calculation of the lower and upper limits, see pairwiseMEP

Examples


x1<-rnorm(120,20,2)
x2<-rnorm(120,100,8)
x3<-rpois(120,10)
x4<-rnbinom(120,mu=10, size=10)
A<-rep(c("a1","a2","a3"), c(40,40,40))
B<-rep(rep(c("b1","b2","b3","b4"), c(10,10,10,10)), times=3)

dat<-data.frame(x1=x1, x2=x2, x3=x3, x4=x4, A=A, B=B)

test<-pairwiseMEP(x=dat,
 ep=c("x1","x2","x3", "x4"),
 f="A", by="B",
 method=c("Param.ratio","Param.ratio","Negbin.ratio","Negbin.ratio"))

test

as.data.frame(test)

as.data.frame(test, whichep=c(1,2))

as.data.frame(test, whichep=c(3,4))

as.data.frame(test, whichep=c("x1","x2"))
