public class KaplanMeierEstimatesEx1
extends Object

Computes the Kaplan-Meier probability estimates for censored data.

The following example is taken from Kalbfleisch and Prentice (1980, page 1). The first column in x contains the death/censoring times for rats suffering from vaginal cancer. The second column contains information as to which of two forms of treatment were provided, while the third column contains the censoring code. Finally, the fourth column contains the frequency of each observation. The product-limit estimates of the survival probabilities are computed for both groups along with their standard error estimates. Tables containing these values along with other statistics are printed.
