cumulate: Compute cumulative 'incidence'

Description

cumulate is an S3 generic to compute cumulative numbers, with methods for different types of objects:

• default method is a wrapper for cumsum

• incidence objects: computes cumulative incidence over time

Usage

cumulate(x)
# S3 method for default
cumulate(x)
# S3 method for incidence2
cumulate(x)

Arguments

x

An incidence object.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
dat <- data.frame(
  dates = as.integer(c(0,1,2,2,3,5,7)),
  groups = factor(c(1, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 1))
)

i <- incidence(dat, date_index = dates, groups = groups)
i

cumulative_i <- cumulate(i)
cumulative_i
# }
