Generating Multi-State Survival Data.
The genSurv software permits to generate data with one binary time-dependent covariate and data stemming from a progressive illness-death model.
If you want to use the release version of the genSurv package, you can install the package from CRAN as follows:
install.packages(pkgs="genSurv");If you want to use the development version of the genSurv package, you can install the package from GitHub via the remotes package:
remotes::install_github(
repo="arturstat/genSurv",
build=TRUE,
build_manual=TRUE
