Cyclops data object
Add an intercept covariate if one was not imported through SQL
Specify is a covariate should be used as an offset (fixed coefficient = 1).
Set option to -1
to specify the time-to-event column,
otherwise include a single numeric or character covariate name.
Set to TRUE
to indicate that offsets were log-transformed before importing into Cyclops data object.
Sort covariates in numeric-order with intercept first if it exists.
List of numeric or character covariates names to densely represent in Cyclops data object. For efficiency, we suggest making atleast the intercept dense.
