Parse a NONMEM control stream

Reads the content of a control stream and extracts informations related to input data, model, estimation and output.

parse_nm_control_stream(filepath = NULL, content = NULL,
  read_initial_values = TRUE, verbose = FALSE)

Arguments

filepath

character. If content = NULL, defines the filepath of the control stream file.
content

character. Text content of a control stream file.
read_initial_values

logical. If TRUE (default), parses initial parameter values from the control stream.
verbose

logical. If TRUE: prints output messages.

Value

A list representing a NONMEM control stream.

Object structure:

  • content: control stream lines.

  • problem: problem description.

  • ignore: list with:

    • C: logical. TRUE if IGNORE=C

    • @: logical. TRUE if IGNORE=@

    • #: logical. TRUE if IGNORE=#

    • data: data frame containing other IGNORE options.

  • ignore_at: logical, indicating if if IGNORE=@ is specified.

  • dataset_file: dataset file name.

  • subroutine: NONMEM ADVAN subroutine.

  • model_compartments: tibble of the compartments (name and number of each).

  • subpopulations: number of subpopulations (for mixture models).

  • input: tibble of dataset input columns (name, is dropped?, has a synonymn/alias?).

  • parameters_definitions: tibble of the model parameters (THETAs and ETAs).

  • estimations: successive estimation methods.

  • tables: output tables with columns definitions.
