Description

The SurvBin package contains four key functions:

• lstats to compute the standardized L-statistic (with pooled/unpooled variance estimators);
• lstats_boots to compute the standardized L-statistic (with bootstrap variance estimator);
• survtest to compute the Weighted Kaplan-Meier based-test;
• bintest to compute the proportions’ test.

The SurvBin package also provides the function survbinCov that can be used to calculate the covariance between the survival and binary statistics; and the function simsurvbin for simulating bivariate binary and survival data.
