Some helper function for simulation
These function helps to parse a character string into a list object and also creates parameters for performing multiple simulations
parse_parm(character_string, in_list = FALSE)
character_string
: A character string for parameter where the items in a list is separated by semicolon. For example: 1, 2; 3, 4in_list
: TRUE if the result need to wrap in a list, default is FALSEA list or a vector
parse_parm("1, 2; 3, 4") parse_parm("1, 2")
