Description of main functions in FamEvent package.

Functions	Description
carrierprob	computes the carrier probability from observed genotype or phenotype data or from the penetrance model fit.
fampower	computes the power of detecting genetic effect in the penetrance model based on a family-based simulation study.
penetrance	estimates the cumulative disease risks (penetrances) and confidence intervals at given age(s) based on the fitted penetrance model.
penmodel	fits penetrance models for complete family data.
penmodelEM	fits penetrance models for family data with missing genetic information.
penplot	plots the penetrance functions given the values of baseline parameters and regression coefficients and choices of baseline and frailty distributions.
simfam	simulates family data.
