Description

Update a method specification

Usage

## S3 method for class 'lcMethod'
update(object, ..., .eval = FALSE, .remove = character(), envir = NULL)

Arguments

object	The lcMethod object.
...	The new or updated method argument values.
.eval	Whether to assign the evaluated argument values to the method. By default (FALSE), the argument expression is preserved.
.remove	Names of arguments that should be removed.
envir	The environment in which to evaluate the arguments. If NULL, the environment associated with the object is used. If not available, the parent.frame() is used.

Details

Updates or adds arguments to a lcMethod object. The inputs are evaluated in order to determine the presence of formula objects, which are updated accordingly.

Value

The new lcMethod object with the additional or updated arguments.

Examples

method <- lcMethodLMKM(Y ~ 1, nClusters = 2)
method2 <- update(method, formula = ~ . + Time)

method3 <- update(method2, nClusters = 3)

k <- 2
method4 <- update(method, nClusters = k) # nClusters: k

method5 <- update(method, nClusters = k, .eval = TRUE) # nClusters: 2
