\title{
Remission Times of Leukaemia Patients
}
\description{
A data frame from a trial of 42 leukaemia patients. Some were
treated with the drug
\emph{6-mercaptopurine}
and the rest are controls.  The trial was designed as matched pairs,
both withdrawn from the trial when either came out of remission.
}
\usage{

}
\format{
This data frame contains the following columns:
\describe{
\item{\code{pair}}{
label for pair
}
\item{\code{time}}{
remission time in weeks
}
\item{\code{cens}}{
censoring, 0/1
}
\item{\code{treat}}{
