I was trying to replicate one CRM simulation. The following code works but
seems redundant so I want to create a loop.

####O'Quigley CRM example 1#####
f1<-function(x) exp(-x)
dose<-c(-1.47,-1.1,-.69,-.42,0.0,.42)
p<-c(0.05,0.1,0.2,0.3,0.5,0.7)
y<-c(0,0,1,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,1,1)

f2<-function(x) f1(x)*(1-0.2^x)
denom2<-integrate(f2,0,100)$value
alpha2<-integrate(function(x) x*f2(x),0,100)$value/denom2
id<-which.min(abs(-.5*log(0.2^(-1/alpha2)-1)-dose))  ### id is used to
locate the next prob.

f3<-function(x) f2(x)*(1-.3^x)
denom3<-integrate(f3,0,100)$value
alpha3<-integrate(function(x) x*f3(x),0,100)$value/denom3
id<-which.min(abs(-.5*log(0.2^(-1/alpha3)-1)-dose))

f4<-function(x) f3(x)*.3^x
denom4<-integrate(f4,0,100)$value
alpha4<-integrate(function(x) x*f4(x),0,100)$value/denom4
id<-which.min(abs(-.5*log(0.2^(-1/alpha4)-1)-dose))
