SimResultParam-class: Class "SimResultParam"

Description

The parameter result object that represents the parameter values used in each replication in a simulation study. This object saves the parameter values and model misspecification of each replication and is able to summarize the population misfits.

Objects from the Class

Object can be created by simResultParam, Objects can be also created by calls of the form new("SimResultParam", ...).
