Description

confenv determines confidence envelopes for the difference in estimated K functions for a set of cases and controls using a kdenv object.

Usage

confenv(object, level)
## S3 method for class 'kdenv':
confenv(object, level = 0.95)

Arguments

object

A kdenv object from the kd.env function.

level

Confidence level. Should be a number between 0 and 1.

Value

• Returns an confenvkd object. This is just a data frame with r, the distances at which the confidence envelope is calculated, lo, the lower bounds of the confidence envelopes, and hi, the upper bounds of the confidence envelopes.
