Check if an argument is a count

Description

A count is defined as non-negative integerish value.

Usage

checkCount(
  x,
  na.ok = FALSE,
  positive = FALSE,
  tol = sqrt(.Machine$double.eps),
  null.ok = FALSE
)

check_count(
  x,
  na.ok = FALSE,
  positive = FALSE,
  tol = sqrt(.Machine$double.eps),
  null.ok = FALSE
)

assertCount(
  x,
  na.ok = FALSE,
  positive = FALSE,
  tol = sqrt(.Machine$double.eps),
  null.ok = FALSE,
  coerce = FALSE,
  .var.name = vname(x),
  add = NULL
)

assert_count(
  x,
  na.ok = FALSE,
  positive = FALSE,
  tol = sqrt(.Machine$double.eps),
  null.ok = FALSE,
  coerce = FALSE,
  .var.name = vname(x),
  add = NULL
)

testCount(
  x,
  na.ok = FALSE,
  positive = FALSE,
  tol = sqrt(.Machine$double.eps),
  null.ok = FALSE
)

test_count(
  x,
  na.ok = FALSE,
  positive = FALSE,
  tol = sqrt(.Machine$double.eps),
  null.ok = FALSE
)

expect_count(
  x,
  na.ok = FALSE,
  positive = FALSE,
  tol = sqrt(.Machine$double.eps),
  null.ok = FALSE,
  info = NULL,
  label = vname(x)
)

Arguments

`x`	[any] Object to check.
`na.ok`	[`logical(1)`] Are missing values allowed? Default is `FALSE`.
`positive`	[`logical(1)`] Must `x` be positive (>= 1)? Default is `FALSE`, allowing 0.
`tol`	[`double(1)`] Numerical tolerance used to check whether a double or complex can be converted. Default is `sqrt(.Machine$double.eps)`.
`null.ok`	[`logical(1)`] If set to `TRUE`, `x` may also be `NULL`. In this case only a type check of `x` is performed, all additional checks are disabled.
`coerce`	[`logical(1)`] If `TRUE`, the input `x` is returned as integer after an successful assertion.
`.var.name`	[`character(1)`] Name of the checked object to print in assertions. Defaults to the heuristic implemented in `vname`.
`add`	[`AssertCollection`] Collection to store assertion messages. See `AssertCollection`.
`info`	[`character(1)`] Extra information to be included in the message for the testthat reporter. See `expect_that`.
`label`	[`character(1)`] Name of the checked object to print in messages. Defaults to the heuristic implemented in `vname`.

Details

This function does not distinguish between NA, NA_integer_, NA_real_, NA_complex_ NA_character_ and NaN.

Value

Depending on the function prefix: If the check is successful, the functions assertCount/assert_count return x invisibly, whereas checkCount/check_count and testCount/test_count return TRUE. If the check is not successful, assertCount/assert_count throws an error message, testCount/test_count returns FALSE, and checkCount/check_count return a string with the error message. The function expect_count always returns an expectation.
