the formula of the basic model that is going to be fitted. Depending on resptype it will be the formula corresponding to a coxph model or to a glm model. In the case of "survival" a formula like Surv(time, status) ~ trt would be expected and in the "binary" case a formula like y ~ trt.
subgroup_model: (formula)
the formula with all the subgroup variables.
data: (data frame)
the data frame with the variables.
resptype: (string)
the type of data used. Can be "survival" or "binary".
