# S3 method for tidyvpcobj
simulated(o, data, ysim, ...)
Arguments
o
tidyvpcobj
...
other arguments
data
data.frame or data.table of simulated data
ysim
numeric y-variable, typically named DV
Value
A tidyvpcobj containing simulated dataset sim formatted with columns x, y, and repl which indicates the replicate number.
The column x is used from the observed() function. Resulting dataset is of class data.frame and data.table.
Details
The simulated function is used for specifying simulated input data and variables for VPC. Note: Simulated data must not
contain missing DV and may require subsetting MDV == 0 before generating VPC. The ordering of observed and simulated
data must also be consistent, with replicates in simulated data stacked on top of each other.
