logrankSingleZ: Helper function computes single component of the logrank statistic

Description

Helper function computes single component of the logrank statistic

Usage

logrankSingleZ(obs0, obs1, y0, y1, ...)

Value

Returns a list containing at least the following components:

oMinE

observed minus expected.

v

hypergeometric variance.

Arguments

obs0

integer, number of observations in the control group

obs1

integer, number of observations in the treatment group

y0

integer, total number of participants in the control group

y1

integer, total number of participants in the treatment group

...

further arguments to be passed to or from methods.

Examples

y0Vector <- c(6, 4, 4, 1, 0)
y1Vector <- c(6, 6, 5, 2, 2)
obs0Vector <- c(1, 0, 2, 1, 0)
obs1Vector <- c(0, 1, 1, 0, 1)

varVector <- oMinEVector <-y0Vector

for (i in seq_along(y0Vector)) {
  tempResult <- logrankSingleZ(obs0=obs0Vector[i], obs1=obs1Vector[i],
                              y0=y0Vector[i], y1=y1Vector[i])
  oMinEVector[i] <- tempResult[["oMinE"]]
  varVector[i] <- tempResult[["v"]]
}

sum(oMinEVector)/sqrt(sum(varVector))
