[R] retrieve p-value from a cox.obj

[Bert Gunter]

str() is your friend. It tells you about the structure of any R object, from
which you can usually glean what you need to know to get what you want. It
is often useful to use it on summary(object) rather than on the object, as
the summary method for an (S3) classed object often contains what you're
looking for.

Less generally, names() and as.list() can sometimes get you what you want
also.

Alternatively, check the summary.coxph() code (survival:::summary.coxph, as
it's hidden in the namespace). It is clear there how to get what you want,
either direct from the fitted object or from the summary.coxph object.

Subject: [R] retrieve p-value from a cox.obj


I have a cox.obj named obj, 
obj <- coxph( Surv(time, status) ~ group, surv.data)
now I want to retrieve the p-value from obj, so that I can run this hundreds
of times and plot out the distribution of the p-value. could anyone tell me
how to get p-value from obj?

thanks,
