Value

A results object containing:

`results$instructions`					a html
`results$modelSummary`					a table
`results$coefficients`					a table
`results$relativeSurvival`					a table
`results$smoothingInfo`					a table
`results$goodnessOfFit`					a table
`results$relativeSurvivalPlot`					an image
`results$excessHazardPlot`					an image
`results$lifeExpectancyPlot`					an image

Tables can be converted to data frames with asDF or as.data.frame. For example:

results$modelSummary$asDF

as.data.frame(results$modelSummary)
