    scalechoice(shape = 3, pm = 0.2, t = 1)

### Arguments

`shape` | shape parameter (usually shape=3)
`pm` | a numeric value (0<p<1), probability that an individual dies before time t
`t` | a numeric value, time t

### Value

a single numeric value, giving the scale parameter needed to fulfill pm(t) for the current definition of the Weibull disstribution.
