as.array3: Reshape a vector or array to have 3 dimensions.

In fda: Functional Data Analysis

Reshape a vector or array to have 3 dimensions.

Description

Coerce a vector or array to have 3 dimensions, preserving dimnames if feasible. Throw an error if length(dim(x)) > 3.

Usage

as.array3(x) 

Arguments

x	A vector or array.

Details

1. dimx <- dim(x); ndim <- length(dimx)

2. if(ndim==3)return(x).

3. if(ndim>3)stop.

4. x2 <- as.matrix(x)

5. dim(x2) <- c(dim(x2), 1)

6. xnames <- dimnames(x)

7. if(is.list(xnames))dimnames(x2) <- list(xnames[[1]], xnames[[2]], NULL)

Value

A 3-dimensional array with names matching x

  ## matrix -> array

  as.array3(matrix(1:6, 2))
  as.array3(matrix(1:6, 2, dimnames=list(letters[1:2],
      LETTERS[3:5])))

  as.array3(array(1:6, 1:3)) 

  ##
  ## 4-d array 
  ##
  # These lines throw an error because the dimensionality woud be 4
  # and as.array3 only allows dimensions 3 or less.
  # if(!CRAN()) {
  #   as.array3(array(1:24, 1:4)) 
  # }
