## S3 method for class 'pairwiseMEP'
as.data.frame(x, row.names = NULL,
 optional = FALSE, whichep = NULL, ...)

Arguments

• x: an object of class pairwiseMEP as can be obtained by calling pairwiseMEP
• row.names: as in as.data.frame
• optional: as in as.data.frame
• whichep: a vector of integers or character strings, indexing which endpoints (which response variables) from object x shall be coerced to a data.frame; if omitted (default), all endpoints are coerced to a data.frame
• ...: Further arguments to be passed to as.data.frame

Returns

A data.frame with columns

• estimate: numeric, the point estimates

• lower: numeric, the lower confidence limits

• upper: numeric, the upper confidence limits

• comparison: character, the name of the groupwise comparison

• by: optional, character, the name of subset of the original data.frame

• response: character, the name of the response variable
