Appends specified break to the data
A custom function to insert rows in long data with new pseudo-observations
that are being done on the specified break ages. There should be a
column called first
in data
with logical data that codes whether
the current row is the first for subject id
. Furthermore,
the function assumes that columns age
, occ
,
hgt.z
, wgt.z
and
bmi.z
are available. This function is used on the tbc
data in FIMD chapter 9. Check that out to see it in action.
