In biometryassist: Functions to Assist Design and Analysis of Agronomic Experiments

Produce a graph of design layout, skeletal ANOVA table and data frame with complete design

Description

Deprecated: des_info() has been superseded by design(). Please use design() instead. This function will be removed in a future version.

Usage

des_info(
  design.obj,
  nrows,
  ncols,
  brows = NA,
  bcols = NA,
  byrow = TRUE,
  fac.names = NULL,
  fac.sep = c("", " "),
  buffer = NULL,
  plot = TRUE,
  rotation = 0,
  size = 4,
  margin = FALSE,
  save = FALSE,
  savename = paste0(design.obj$parameters$design, "_design"),
  plottype = "pdf",
  return.seed = TRUE,
  quiet = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

design.obj	An agricolae design object.
nrows	The number of rows in the design.
ncols	The number of columns in the design.
brows	For RCBD only. The number of rows in a block.
bcols	For RCBD only. The number of columns in a block.
byrow	For split-plot only. Logical (default: TRUE). Provides a way to arrange plots within whole-plots when there are multiple possible arrangements.
fac.names	Allows renaming of the A level of factorial designs (i.e. those using agricolae::design.ab()) by passing (optionally named) vectors of new labels to be applied to the factors within a list. See examples and details for more information.
fac.sep	The separator used by fac.names. Used to combine factorial design levels. If a vector of 2 levels is supplied, the first separates factor levels and label, and the second separates the different factors.
buffer	The type of buffer. One of edge, row, column, double row, double column, or block (coming soon).
plot	Logical (default TRUE). If TRUE, display a plot of the generated design. A plot can always be produced later using autoplot().
rotation	Rotate the text output as Treatments within the plot. Allows for easier reading of long treatment labels. Takes positive and negative values being number of degrees of rotation from horizontal.
size	Increase or decrease the text size within the plot for treatment labels. Numeric with default value of 4.
margin	Logical (default FALSE). Setting to TRUE will add a margin (white space) between plot and axes.
save	One of FALSE (default)/"none", TRUE/"both", "plot" or "workbook". Specifies which output to save.
savename	A filename for the design to be saved to. Default is the type of the design combined with "_design".
plottype	The type of file to save the plot as. Usually one of "pdf", "png", or "jpg". See ggplot2::ggsave() for all possible options.
return.seed	Logical (default TRUE). Output the seed used in the design?
quiet	Logical (default FALSE). Return the objects without printing output.
...	Additional parameters passed to ggplot2::ggsave() for saving the plot.

Value

A list containing a data frame with the complete design, a ggplot object with plot layout, the seed (if return.seed = TRUE), and the satab object, allowing repeat output of the satab table via cat(output$satab).
