Combine matrices of various lengths

Description

Combine arbitrary matrices of data, filling in missing columns with NaN

Usage

CombineRows(...,na.rm=FALSE)

Arguments

...	First argument is a matrix usually with named columns, thereafter either matrices or d vectors of arbitrary lengths, see example
na.rm	boolean: FALSE: fills with NaN TRUE: filles with zeros

Details

Robust alternative to rbind that fills missing values with #NaN, tries to match given column names if matrices are inserted otherwise fills up the missing columns at the end.

The first argument has to be a matrix. It is assumed that this matrix has to be filled up and other arguments or not of bigger size than d columns. Otherwiese the further elements stored in columns >d are ignored.

Value

matrix of dimensionality of n x d with n beeing the number of rows of the first argument and d the number columns of the first argument given as input
