Function estimators is a generic function used to present point and
mean squared error (MSE) estimates and calculated coefficients of variation
(CV).
estimators(object, indicator, MSE, CV, ...)an object for which point and/or MSE estimates and/or calculated CV's are desired.
optional character vector that selects which indicators
shall be returned: (i) all calculated indicators ("all");
(ii) each indicator name: "Mean" "Quantile_10", "Quantile_25", "Median",
"Quantile_75", "Quantile_90", "Head_Count",
"Poverty_Gap", "Gini", "Quintile_Share" or the function name/s of
"custom_indicator/s"; (iii) groups of indicators: "Quantiles", "Poverty",
"Inequality" or "Custom".If two of these groups are selected, only the first
one is returned. Defaults to "all". Note, additional custom indicators can be
defined as argument for model-based approaches (see also ebp)
and do not appear in groups of indicators even though these might belong to
one of the groups.
optional logical. If TRUE, MSE estimates for selected indicators
per domain are added to the data frame of point estimates. Defaults to
FALSE.
optional logical. If TRUE, coefficients of variation for selected
indicators per domain are added to the data frame of point estimates.
Defaults to FALSE.
arguments to be passed to or from other methods, e.g. indicator.
The return of estimators depends on the class of its argument. The
documentation of particular methods gives detailed information about the
return of that method.
