Description

Given two vectors $d_1$ and $d_2$ of date type, this function outputs all entries $d_{1j}$ and $d_{2j}$ such that $d_{1j} \ge d_{2j}$.

Usage

checkDateSuccession(d1, d2, pat, names = NA, lab = "")

Arguments

d1
Supposedly earlier dates.
d2
Supposedly later dates.
pat
Corresponding list of patient (observation) numbers.
names
Names of date vectors, of length 3.
lab

Run this code
set.seed(1977)
diagnosis <- as.Date(round(runif(10, min = 35000, max = 40000)), 
    origin = "1899-12-30")
death <- as.Date(round(runif(10, min = 35000, max = 40000)), 
    origin = "1899-12-30")

## check whether diagnosis was before death
checkDateSuccession(diagnosis, death, 1:10, names = c("Pat", 
    "diagnosis", "death"), lab = "tab: diag --> death")
