Abstract: phenotype generates the disease status and censored age based on family data created by simuped2 or simuped3 (Cui 2000). A censored age is the age at onset of a disease if a person is affected, or the age of death if a person has died before developing the disease. Otherwise it is the calendar age contained in the original family data. This program expects that the genetic hazard ratio, hr, to be specified as a non-negative value. This program is also known as phenotyp in the previous versions. This is a revision of material published in STB-61, dm92, 2001.
