(a) Produce a plot of the Kaplan Meier estimate for T, along with 95% confidence intervals using Greenwood's approximation method.

(b) Produce a plot of the Kaplan Meier estimate for T, along with 95% confidence intervals using the log-log approximation method.

(c) Produce a plot of the Kaplan Meier estimate for T, along with 95% confidence intervals using the log approximation method.

(d) Let S(t) and S(t) denote the Kaplan-Meier estimator and the Fleming- Harrington estimator of the survivorship function of the event time, respectively. Calculate S(16) and S(16) by hand. What is the standard error of S(16)?
