combine_data_nplcm function

combine multiple data_nplcm (useful when simulating data from regression models)

combine_data_nplcm(data_nplcm_list)

Arguments

• data_nplcm_list: a list of data_nplcm in nplcm()

Returns

a list with each element resulting from row binding of each corresponding element in the input data_nplcm_list.

Examples

N=100

lambda = c(.8,.2)                # subclass weights for control group
