simulateplpData creates a plpData object with simulated data.
Usage
simulatePlpData(plpDataSimulationProfile, n = 10000)
Arguments
- plpDataSimulationProfile
An object of type plpDataSimulationProfile as generated
using the
createplpDataSimulationProfile function.
- n
The size of the population to be generated.
Value
An object of type plpData.
Details
This function generates simulated data that is in many ways similar to the original data on which
the simulation profile is based.
Examples
# first load the simulation profile to use
data("simulationProfile")
# then generate the simulated data
plpData <- simulatePlpData(simulationProfile, n = 100)
#> Generating covariates
#> Generating cohorts
#> Generating outcomes
nrow(plpData$cohorts)
#> [1] 100
