Hello all. I've been attempting to utilize the "survival" pkg ( http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/survival/index.html), while reading through this guide (http://www.ms.uky.edu/~mai/Rsurv.pdf). I figured working through the guide would be the best way to go, before attempting my own data.
I tried to utilize the Kaplain-Meier estimator as shown in the guide: summary(survfit(Surv(aml$time[1:11],aml$status[1:11]))) This, however, returns the error: Error in survfit(Surv(aml$time[1:11], aml$status[1:11])) : Survfit requires a formula or a coxph fit as the first argument Obviously the first thing that throws me is that apparently the package's guide doesn't actually work with the package. That seems a glaring oversight, so my first thought is obviously that I've missed a setting somewhere. I then tried to provide a function for survfit, as requested, but I could no x-axis variable for the function (assuming Surv[] is the response variable) that would make it work. Any ideas/suggestions?
