Vectorization of Functions to Create Custom Plots and Tables

2021-10-25

To install and load PowerUpR:

install.packages("PowerUpR")
library(PowerUpR)

PowerUpR functions are not vectorized to avoid possible complications. However, researchers often explore variety of design charactersitics when they determine their sample size. Creating custom plots and tables may assist with their decision. In what follows, example code snippets are provided to demonstrate vectorization of PowerUpR functions over single or multiple design parameters.

NOTE: We would like to thank Dr. Andi Fugard for inspiring this vignette. Dr. Fugard realized that PowerUpR functions does not evaluate arguments when they are embedded within a user-specificed function. This vignette provides example vectorization of PowerUpR functions for creating custom plots and tables.

custom_fun <- function(x) {
  parms <- list(rho3 = x,
                power = .80, rho2 = .06,
                g3 = 1, r21 = .55, r22 = .50, r23 = .45,
                p = .40, n = 10, J = 2, K = 83)
  design <- do.call("mdes.cra3", parms)
  design$mdes[1]
}

x = seq(.10,.90,.01)
mdes <- mapply(custom_fun, x)
plot(x, mdes, type = "l", xlab = "rho3")
