rename_sessions: Rename session walls

In Dynet: Tidy Temporal Network Analysis

Rename session walls

Description

Rename session walls

Usage

rename_sessions(dn, mapping)

Arguments

dn	A sessioned temporal network.
mapping	A named character vector from old to new labels, or an old/new data frame.

Value

A new dynet object, class c("dynet", "netobject", "cograph_network"), with edge and vertex session labels renamed together and the session scheme in its metadata updated. Labels absent from mapping are left alone. Raises dynet_unknown_session when an old label is not a session, and dynet_bad_input when the network has no session scheme, when mapping is malformed, or when the renaming would produce duplicate labels.

Examples

dn <- dynet(school_contacts)
weeks <- with(school_contacts, ifelse(start < 7, "week_1", "later"))
labelled <- set_tie_sessions(dn, session = weeks)
renamed <- rename_sessions(labelled, c(week_1 = "opening"))
renamed
