mod_check: Checking the main parameters 'struc_preparation2'
In PROSPER: Simulation of Weed Population Dynamics

Description Usage Arguments Details Examples

Before the preparation (struc_preparation2) it is necessary to check, whether the necessary information is provided to principally conduct a simulation run. Furthermore the crop.list is brought to the correct form.

mod_check(
  param.weed = NA,
  area = NA,
  duration = NA,
  repetitions = NA,
  crop_list = NA,
  max_vec_length = NA
)

`param.weed`	A `data.frame` with population dynamic parameters with or without stochasticity. The structure of `param.weed` is essential (see details). The easiest way to create the `data.frame` is to adopt an example (param.ECHCG).
`area`	number of area units. `positive numeric`.
`duration`	maximum number of simulation loops in the simulation. `positive integer`.
`repetitions`	number of repetitions of the simulation. `positive integer`
`crop_list`	crop rotation. `character vector`, elements must fit to the names in the `data.frame` weed.
`max_vec_length`	used internally, a technical term, defining the maximum length of vectors to be used.

If no genetics are required af has to be set to NA. The value of dom is adjusted to the length of af. The dom is cut or the first given value is repeated to fit the number of given alleles in af. The variables af and dom are corrected and n_loci is created, which is 0 when no genetics is included.
