withMin: 'Agents' with minimum

In NetLogoR: Build and Run Spatially Explicit Agent-Based Models

Agents with minimum

Description

Report the patches or turtles among agents which have their variable equals to the minimum value.

Usage

withMin(agents, world, var)

## S4 method for signature 'matrix,worldMatrix,missing'
withMin(agents, world)

## S4 method for signature 'matrix,worldArray,character'
withMin(agents, world, var)

## S4 method for signature 'agentMatrix,missing,character'
withMin(agents, var)

Arguments

agents	Matrix (ncol = 2) with the first column pxcor and the second column pycor representing the patches coordinates, or `AgentMatrix` object representing the moving `agents`.
world	WorldMatrix or worldArray object.
var	Character. The name of the selected agents variable. If agents are patches and the world is a worldMatrix object, var must not be provided. If agents are patches and the world is a worldArray object, var is the name of the layer to use to define the patches values. If agents are turtles, var is one of the turtles' variable and can be equal to xcor, ycor, any of the variables created when turtles were created, as well as any variable created using turtlesOwn().

Details

world must not be provided if agents are turtles.

Value

Matrix (ncol = 2) with the first column pxcor and the second column pycor representing the coordinates of the patches among the agents which have their variable equal to the minimum value among the agents, or

    `AgentMatrix` representing the `turtles` among the `agents`
    which have their variable
    `var` equal to the minimum value among the `agents`.

Examples

# Patches
w1 <- createWorld(
  minPxcor = 0, maxPxcor = 4, minPycor = 0, maxPycor = 4,
  data = sample(1:5, size = 25, replace = TRUE)
)
plot(w1)
p1 <- withMin(agents = patches(w1), world = w1)

# Turtles
t1 <- createTurtles(
  n = 10, coords = randomXYcor(w1, n = 10),
  heading = sample(1:3, size = 10, replace = TRUE)
)
t2 <- withMin(agents = t1, var = "heading")
