checkEmptyValLabels: Check Value Labels

In eatGADS: Data Management of Large Hierarchical Data

Check Value Labels

Description

Check value labels for (a) value labels with no occurrence in the data (checkEmptyValLabels) and (b) values with no value labels (checkMissingValLabels).

Usage

checkEmptyValLabels(
  GADSdat,
  vars = namesGADS(GADSdat),
  valueRange = NULL,
  output = c("list", "data.frame")
)

checkMissingValLabels(
  GADSdat,
  vars = namesGADS(GADSdat),
  classes = c("integer"),
  valueRange = NULL,
  output = c("list", "data.frame")
)

Arguments

GADSdat	A GADSdat object.
vars	Character vector with the variable names to which checkValLabels() should be applied.
valueRange	[optional] Numeric vector of length 2: In which range should numeric values be checked? If specified, only numeric values are returned and strings are omitted.
output	Should the output be structured as a "list" or a "data.frame"?
classes	Character vector with the classes to which checkMissingLabels() should be applied. Valid options are "integer", "double", and "character".

Details

NAs are excluded from this check. Designated missing codes are reported normally.

Value

Returns a list of length vars or a data.frame.

Functions

• checkEmptyValLabels(): check for superfluous value labels

• checkMissingValLabels(): check for missing value labels

Examples

# Check a categorical and a metric variable
checkMissingValLabels(pisa, vars = c("g8g9", "age"))
checkEmptyValLabels(pisa, vars = c("g8g9", "age"))

# Check while defining a specific value range
checkMissingValLabels(pisa, vars = c("g8g9", "age", "idschool"),
              valueRange = c(0, 5))
checkEmptyValLabels(pisa, vars = c("g8g9", "age", "idschool"),
              valueRange = c(0, 5))
