Constructive options for matrices

Source: R/s3-matrix.R

Matrices are atomic vectors, lists, or objects of type "expression" with a "dim" attributes of length 2.

opts_matrix(constructor = c("matrix", "array", "cbind", "rbind", "next"), ...)

Arguments

constructor

String. Name of the function used to construct the object.

...

Additional options used by user defined constructors through the opts object

Value

An object of class <constructive_options/constructive_options_matrix>

Details

Depending on constructor, we construct the object as follows:

  • "matrix" : We use matrix()

  • "array" : We use array()

  • "cbind","rbind" : We use cbind() or "rbind()", this makes named columns and rows easier to read.

  • "next" : Use the constructor for the next supported class. Call .class2() on the object to see in which order the methods will be tried. This will usually be equivalent to "array"

  • "atomic" : We define as an atomic vector and repair attributes
