[R] documentation typo in coxph?

[Ramon Diaz-Uriarte]

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,

Ramón
