Dear All,
I think there is a typo in the documentation for coxph (library survival).
The help says:
eps: convergence threshold. Iteration will continue until the
relative change in the log-likelihood is less than eps.
Default is .0001.
However, if I do "coxph.control()" I get:> coxph.control()
$eps
[1] 1e-09
So the actual eps being used is not 10-4 but 10-9.
Best,
Ram?n
