as_function

An extension to <code><a href="/link/as.function()?package=simulist&version=0.5.0" data-mini-rdoc="simulist::as.function()">as.function()</a></code>, particularly the epiparameter
<code>as.function</code> S3 method, with the added feature that <code><a href="/link/NULL?package=simulist&version=0.5.0" data-mini-rdoc="simulist::NULL">NULL</a></code>s are converted
into functions that generate a vector of <code>NA</code>s to behave equivalently to
the generator functions output from
<code>as.function(..., func_type = "generate")</code>.
If a function is already passed to <code>as_function</code> it will be returned
unchanged.
There is also input checking to error if input is not an <code>&lt;epiparameter&gt;</code>,
<code>function</code> (<a href="/link/closure?package=simulist&version=0.5.0" data-mini-rdoc="simulist::closure">closure</a>), or for onset-to-event distributions <code>NULL</code>.

Tools to simulate realistic raw case data for an epidemic in
the form of line lists and contacts using a branching process.
Simulated outbreaks are parameterised with epidemiological parameters
and can have age-structured populations, age-stratified
hospitalisation and death risk and time-varying case fatality risk.

as_function function

<dl><dt>x</dt>
<dd>A named list containing either <code>&lt;epiparameter&gt;</code>, <code>function</code> or
<code>NULL</code>. Named list elements are: <code>"contact_distribution"</code>,

Arguments

An extension to <code><a href='https://rdrr.io/r/base/as.function.html'>as.function()</a></code>, particularly the epiparameter
<code>as.function</code> S3 method, with the added feature that <code><a href='https://rdrr.io/r/base/NULL.html'>NULL</a></code>s are converted
into functions that generate a vector of <code>NA</code>s to behave equivalently to
the generator functions output from
<code>as.function(..., func_type = "generate")</code>.
If a function is already passed to <code>as_function</code> it will be returned
unchanged.
There is also input checking to error if input is not an <code>&lt;epiparameter&gt;</code>,
<code>function</code> (<a href='https://rdrr.io/r/base/function.html'>closure</a>), or for onset-to-event distributions <code>NULL</code>.
