Area Under the Curve(AUC) and Area Under the first Moment Curve(AUMC) by linear trapezoidal method

LinAUC.Rd

It calculates AUC and AUMC using the linear trapezoidal method

Usage

LinAUC(x, y)

Arguments

x

vector values of the independent variable, usually time

y

vector values of the dependent variable, usually concentration

Details

This function returns AUC and AUMC by the linear trapezoidal method.

Value

AUC

area under the curve

AUMC

area under the first moment curve
