impute

A function which takes a SingleSimFit object and outputs the details for a single imputed data set, specifically a list with two elements: new.censored.times - a vector of times subjects were censored (after taking into account imputation) and newevent.times - a list of vectors where the vectors contain the imputed event times for the subjects (these vectors do not contain the observed event times before subject drop out). If a subject has no imputed events then the vector numeric(0) is returned.
