survival (version 2.6)

survfit.object: Survival Curve Object

Description

This class of objects is returned by the survfit class of functions to represent a fitted survival curve.

Objects of this class have methods for the functions print, summary, plot, points and lines.

Arguments

SUBSCRIPTS

Survfit objects that contain multiple survival curves can be subscripted. This is most often used to plot a subset of the curves. Usually a single subscript will be used. In one particular case -- survival curves for multiple covariate values, from a Cox model that includes a strata statement -- there is a matrix of curves and 2 subscripts may be used. (In this case summary.survfit will also print the data as a matrix).
