In theory, it works
```
> R0 = estimate.R(x1, t=d1, GT=mGT, begin=1, end=117,
methods="EG",pop.size=pop, nsim=N)
>R0
Reproduction number estimate using Exponential Growth method.
R : 0.7425278[ 0.7409297 , 0.7441229 ]
```
but I am not happy because 1. I have to use numbers instead of
variables and 2. numbers instead of dates (which are instead reported in
the examples...).
Even if I force to an integer, I still get an error:
```
> R0 = estimate.R(x1, t=d1, GT=mGT, begin=1, end=length(x1),
+ methods="EG",pop.size=pop, nsim=N)
Error in integrity.checks(epid, t, GT, begin, end, date.first.obs,
time.step, :
If both 'begin'= 1 and 'end'= 117 are provided, they must be of the
same class (dates, character strings or integers).
> int
Error: object 'int' not found
> R0 = estimate.R(x1, t=d1, GT=mGT, begin=1, end=as.integer(length(x1)),
+ methods="EG",pop.size=pop, nsim=N)
Error in integrity.checks(epid, t, GT, begin, end, date.first.obs,
time.step, :
If both 'begin'= 1 and 'end'= 117 are provided, they must be of the
same class (dates, character strings or integers).
```
