coalesce.na-deprecated: Replaces NA values

In kimisc: Kirill's Miscellaneous Functions

Description

This (vectorized) function returns the first non-NA argument, similar to the SQL function COALESCE. If a vector or matrix is passed as first argument, the remaining arguments are recycled to generate a vector/matrix of the same dimension, and coalescing is done element by element.

Usage

coalesce.na(x, ...)

Arguments

x	The first value to coalesce.
...	Other values to coalesce.

Value

A vector of the same length as x.

Examples

coalesce.na(NA, -1)

coalesce.na(NA)

Example output

[1] -1
[1] 5
[1]  1  2 NA
