makeDataMap: Make the maps for the data

In matconv: A Code Converter from the Matlab/Octave Language to R

Description

Make the maps for the data

Usage

makeDataMap(leftSym, rightSym, rClass, matClass = "")

Arguments

leftSym	The left symbol that contains the Matlab data
rightSym	the right symbol that contains the Matlab data
rClass	The formal r class name that defines what the R data is outputted as
matClass	The name of the Matlab class that should be converted

Details

The requirements for conversion are the bounds given by both left and right symbols or the MatLab class. The Matlab class allows for the conversion of structures but is really just a dictionary for the different bounds.

Value

A function that takes in a Matlab lines and changes the data into R data lines

Examples

	 dataMap <- makeDataMap("[", "]", "matrix")
	 dataMap("thing <- [23,2, 3.2; 7, 6, 8]")
	 # "thing <- matrix(c(23, 2, 3.2, 7, 6, 8), nrow = 2, ncol = 3)"
	 
	 dataMap <- makeDataMap(rClass = "list", matClass = "cell")
	 dataMap("otherThing <- {23,2, '3.2'; NaN, 6, 8}")
	 # "otherThing <- list(list(23, 2, '3.2'), list(NaN, 6, 8))"

Example output

[1] "thing <- matrix(c(23, 2, 3.2, 7, 6, 8), nrow = 2, ncol = 3)"
[1] "otherThing <- list(list(23, 2, '3.2'), list(NaN, 6, 8))"
