Quantlet: hazrisk
Description: determines which observations are at risk at the time point t_i.

Usage: inrisk = hazrisk(data,i)
Input:
data n x (p+4) matrix of cosorted time-to-event data: column 1: sorted observed times t_i column 2: cosorted censoring indicator delta_i column 3: cosorted original observation labels i (i=1,...,n) column 4: cosorted number of tied observations at time t_i columns 5 through (p+4): cosorted covariate matrix z This data matrix may be obtained through hazdat.xpl.
i integer, index for time point t_i, 1<=i<=n.
Output:
inrisk n x 1 vector, the jth entry is 1 if the jth observation is at risk at time t_i, 0 otherwise.

Example:
library("hazreg")
randomize(1)
y = -log(1-uniform(20))         ; exponential survival
c = 2*uniform(20)               ; uniform censoring
t = min(y~c,2)                  ; censored time
delta =(y<=c)                  ; censoring indicator
{data,ties} = hazdat(t,delta)   ; preparing data
inrisk = hazrisk(data,5)        ; the risk set at observation 5
inrisk

Result:
The risk set at observation 5 is listed as a vector
where 1 indicates risk and 0 otherwise.

inrisk = hazrisk(data,3)     ; the risk set at observation 3
inrisk

Result:
The risk set at observation 3 is listed as a vector
where 1 indicates risk and 0 otherwise.
