For simplicity, let the censoring time t=5.
I often see some lecture notes in the internet or personal websites have
the following formula in the discrete survival analysis.
S(t=5)=(1-h(t=1))*(1-h(t=2))*(1-h(t=3))*(1-h(t=4))*(1-h(t=5))
where h is the hazard rate.
However, I could not find any textbooks containing this formula.
Is the formula correct? If it is, could please let me know what books I
can find it?
Thanks.
