Description

Simple calculations to describe the datatype of variables and quantify the degree of discreteness.

Usage

datatype(x, limit = 0.8)

Arguments

x	A vector, a numeric matrix or a data frame.
limit	The limit used to define if a variable is treated as discrete or continous, depending on the value of discrete1d.

Value

A data frame with the following variables:

numeric	A logical value. Is variable of mode "numeric"?
discrete	Value of function discrete1d.
valdisc	A logical value. Is variable discrete under the given definition of discreteness?
