[R] only need the p-value

[Ritwik Sinha]

This is how you go about doing this.

summary(results)$coefficients[1,5]

You will have to check this for you code. But the idea is that
summary(results) is a list (?) and one of its components is called
"coefficients", which is a matrix. So the problem is just to extract
one element of this matrix.

I am not well versed with coxph so there may be some minor details I
am missing, but that is the general idea (same as with lm, glm etc.).

For the purpose of multiple testing correction I need to construct an array of these p-values. However since the output is not an array in itself, I cannot find a way to obtain the p-value only.
