R Documentation

Helper to use a `data.frame` to initialize some attributes

Description

Uses dat$init$init_attr to overwrite some attributes of the nodes at initialization

Usage

overwrite_attrs(dat)

Arguments

dat

Main netsim_dat object containing a networkDynamic object and other initialization information passed from netsim.

Details

If an init_attr data.frame is present in dat$init, use it to overwrite the attributes it contains. init_attr must have a number of rows equal to the number of nodes in the model as the attributes will be overwritten one to one, ensuring the correct ordering. init_attr columns MUST have a corresponding attribute already initialized. See "R/default_attributes.R" for adding new attributes to the model. init_attr is removed from dat$init at the end of the function to free up its memory.
